    I have a few of the 84-86 G1 catalogues that used to come with each G1 toy. I want to frame them.

    I left them at a friend's house last night and he's out of town for a week. Can someone possibly get me the measurements for these? I want to get the frames so I can at least have them ready to go when I get the catalogues back. Thanks.

    Most are approximately 8.5" by 22", basically 2 standard pieces of paper end-to-end the long way, but trimmed slightly from that.

    Though the 1984, 1989, and 1990 calendars are smaller and there is a variant of the 1985 catalog that is larger than the 'standard' sized used in 1985-1988.

    It doesn't matter if they are slightly larger or smaller, I'll probably get larger frames anyway. I just wanted the info so I don't buy too small. Thanks much.

    I was thinking about getting one of mine laminated, that way I could turn it over and look at both sides. I never got around to it though. It might make a nice placemat!
