I'm not certain on this as I lost track of the Obs. after moving on,only to bump into it again some 30 years down the line at the Chadderton site.
As mentioned before the print run used to be hours at the Observer,at the Mirror it was over before you could set the ink or register the image.Hence the 3 D photos.
I think in the early seventies the circulation was 27000 for the weekend edition(Friday night print for Saturday)With a lesser run for the Tuesday tabloid.The tabloid was high tech, we had to use a guillotine to cut the edge of the paper,thus turning a broadsheet into a tabloid.
