Notes
Japanese Famicom booklet for Altron's Paperboy. The item's title gives the code ALT-7B and its date 1991-01-30 (the uploader's, a lead for the release). The pinned copy is the item's Japanese OCR, as DjVu XML, which puts spaces between words; quotes keep the OCR's spacing and give a clean reading.
