Carlton -

When you talk about "art supplements" are you talking about blank backed separate issues only, or are you including newspaper pages?

I have a few posted below.

I can't find the A's supplement (now I have something to do today), but I think it's about a foot high, and blank backed.

The St Louis Globe-Democrat is 17.5" wide and 22.5" high.

The St Paul Sunday Pioneer is 16" wide and 22" high.

Both of the larger pieces are just pages from the paper, so they have printing on the reverse.

I'm curious what similar items anybody else has, apologies to Patrick if we're hi-jacking his post, but all good posts (like his) get the responses flowing.
