Kodak contact printing paper Type IX.

Hi all,

I'm new here on this full of very useful informations forum!

I just got a few boxes of Kodak contact printing paper Type IX (expired: 1955)...military stuff it seems...
It's single weight (a little stiffer than what i'm used to) and the back of the paper is a bit shinny (like if it's coated with wax or something?).
The paper is wrapped with usual black paper enveloppe inside some thick foil (lead to prevent fogging?).

Anyway, i haven't found any informations about this paper yet and maybe some of you encountered it at some point?
Is this unbranded AZO paper?
I tested it today and it's perfectly fine and look like AZO to me, rich deep blueish black.

Thanks for any infos!
Eric

My guess is Velox. Very popular in the '60's when I started printing.
