As for stock, the only thing I've ever seen on a legit example is a sort of off-white. If it's pure white I wouldn't trust it, if it's gray cardboard like 1981 Topps I wouldn't trust it.

White or tan. Gray back Exhibits are reprints.
Here's a pic of the backs of 3 of them. The cards are on the stiff/thicker side, (definitely thicker than a post card) and like I mentioned, these look pretty white to me.
I left my scanner on the default setting, which, imo, usually make my cards look a little on the grey side.
