BTW, while I do not know the actual size, the old glass plates were about 8x10 inches... not precisely, but close...... and therefore "ideal". Having said this, considering the dominance of 35mm over the past 40 years, I am surprised there are so few 2:3 ratio papers on the market in the US...... remember it is only cutting.... nothing like brain surgery!
