Hello Malin,
If you are looking for the average postcard size. Ilford has a 4"X6" US
with a preprinted "postcard" back. It comes in a box of 100 however I think
you can get smaller amounts. I got mine at Freestyle in the US.

Model: 834846
Price: $16.99
Manufacturer: Ilford

I hope this is what you were thinking? I think AGFA might have a similar
product.

Take care,
Chuck

Subject: [pinhole-discussion] Standard photographic paper sizes?

Hi all pinholers (or is it pinheads?)!
Anyone going down to the photo store?

Making a pinhole camera and need to know which the standard size
paper is in the UK and the US (the postcard sizes).

I was wondering if any of these sizes of black and white photographic
printing paper are readily available in the US and the UK:

3 1/2 inches by 5 inches (8,9 x 12,7 cm) or
4 1/8 x 5 7/8 inches (10,5 x 14,8 cm).

If these are NOT standard sizes, then what would they be? Someone
suggested 5x7 is the standard in Canada, is it the same in the US?

A little confused!
Malin
