These covers have been printed on to a double sided newsprint, which is a slightly heavier paper stock than the stock I have used previously. I think it works well used as a book jacket as its thicker and will with stand more wear and tear. It also has a slightly off white colour which I feel works well with the colours on the book jackets itself. However with this stock been matte it wouldn't be very resistant to wear and tear so it would also have to be laminated or perhaps consider to use a coated stock as opposed to a uncoated one. For example a satin stock may overcome this problem?!?
