was a blowup of the center strip, (kind of like the panoramic mask on the ZX/MZ and PZ cameras), from a single
35mm frame. The size of the mural was measurable in feet, (roughly16'x40'), if I remember correctly. From the intended
viewing distance the mural looked tack sharp. Viewing distance was everything in that case and excessive enlargement was
truly in the eye of the beholder.

agreed. i suppose, it's not a problem for portaits (otherwise softars wouldn't
sell). and i wouldn't enlarge 35mm to those sizes either.

my conclusion (nothing to do with math) is that the closest

it looks ok is a couple of meters (give or take).
This would be a reasonable viewing distance for a 20x30 portrait, which is what Bruce is selling.
