No, it felt like photographic paper,  certainly not like US lobby cards. 

I really probably haven't seen that many in total, but more than I'd have expected to see over the years. Usually just singles in small amounts, not whole sets. They would just randomly appear in places that had daybills for sale (Like Space Age books, and odd little antique shops). I didn't realise in my early days of collecting that they were genuine lobby cards, I thought they must have been cheap photo prints done by individual cinemas, that's why I never really collected them.

For anyone that is interested in this subject you can visit or revisit my GoneTo The Dogs entry that was included here in this thread during July 2024, when  the colourisation of lobby cards was discussed extensively..

Before I comment any further on this subject I would love to hear from anyone that either believes the colourisation / tinting of lobby cards was applied for first release or re-release screenings.

Aniyone else? Any comments would be appreciated.

Were colourised / tinted lobby cards produced for first release or re-release distribution? No responses yet, but It would be great to hear any views on this question.
