24x36 has long be the most common size for mass produced posters. It is also the most common standard size in ready made poster frames.

I get the Mondo connection. I didn’t really think about that aspect of it, or know that Mondo posters were 24 x36, I guess. As to why 24x36 was adopted as a size for repros — dunno!

Only a tiny fraction of 24x36 is produced by studios like Mondo. By the way, does anyone have any idea why they choose exactly that size for reprint posters? Is 24x36 any standard size for something else? Anyway, a movie about movieposters with 24x36 in its title is a bit disappointing as the real and most common size remains the 27x41 one sheet. One would hope that the content is much better. Marcelwww.movieart.ch Von: MoPo List [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Dominique BESSON Gesendet: Mittwoch, 10.

The posters should and do speak for themselves. They don’t need cgi “help.” Also, 24x36? Really? One of the most common sizes for a repro? Really? Ha!
