XM Studios Print v. Sizing and Frames

I'm patiently waiting for my Batman to ship, but I wanted to be ready to pop that awesome print right into a frame.

Can anyone share what size print these are?

Apologies if this was a dumb question.

Sorry to bump this up, but curious what size frame the collectors in the US are using for the XM art? I'll have 2 here shortly and a couple more on the way, want to be able to display the art.

I don't really know where to start with the info of A3?

"In the American market ISO paper sizes are hardly used at all. The US-alternative to A3 is called Tabloid or Ledger (ANSI B) and measures 11 x 17″ or 279 × 432 mm"

That helps a bit, thank you. With art this good, got to make sure to display it right.

It's slightly longer in length than A3

The problem is that the print size isn't a standard size (as far as the US is concerned), so you likely won't be able to find a standard frame size that is perfect for those dimensions.

You'll likely have to get a custom frame made (if you want the print to fit perfectly), or buy a larger frame and have it matted to fit the frame you bought.
