Broadsides were always printed on a thin paper.

I found both of these in an old store attic in upstate New York. They have not been offered for sale until now! You will receive these folded in their original folds. Please handle with care. The will be good amazing display wall décor items once they are framed!
The detail of the wrapper styles is a delight to read. Here is one wrapper:
