Las Particularidades

The paper is very thin (onion skin) hard crisp paper, smooth-surfaced but not coated. The gum is very light ivory clear glossy gum. Moderate Hi-brite luminiscence front and back. The perforations, either harrow (h) or comb (c), are noted below. X-Ray florescense spectroscopy shows a large peak of titanium, pretty good evidence of the use of titanium dioxide to compensate for the thinness of the paper, which is probably opaque without it.
