I think it's similar, except that here they packaged em seperately with the news paper.
It's basically a big outer cover in modern paper, explaining the context, and then 2 A3's in older paper look . In some of them they added posters of the time.. advertisement or propaganda posters, or War time occupation noticed by the Germans.





Then after a while you could get binders for em with gold letters "war papers". It's a nice idea really.. columns are nice, but this made it collectible.
