Lobby Card Weight/Size

Hey all, newbie question time:
Approximately, how much does a package of 8 French lobby cards weigh? As well, what is the approximate thickness of the 8 lobby cards when stacked... (just the lobby cards with no packing/shipping material)
Cheers!

Not sure if I am stating the obvious, but French lobbies are just thin paper, as opposed to the thicker and weightier card of the Americas.
So, as per eight sheets of A4, would be about right.

Thanks so much for the reply Simes
I've never seen/touched a French lobby card (or any type of lobby card for that matter), so I was thinking that French lobbies were heavy card types.
Much appreciated
Cheers,
Devin

I think this depends a lot on age and producer. I have a set of French cards for RENT. They are 8.5x11, glossy on both sides and about halfway between bond paper and cardstock. I'd say about 30-40 pound stock.
