We have sold over fifty million dollars of movie paper.

Of that, what percentage of our sales are each size or type?

As you might guess, U.S. one-sheets are far away the largest by percentage, representing just under 42% of those sales.

And as you also might guess, U.S. lobby cards are a strong #2, with over 14% of those sales.

But what U.S. sizes would you guess is #3, 4, and 5?

And what non-U.S. country sizes are #9, 10 and 11, after eight U.S. sizes?

I'm surprised 3-sheets were so high on the list!

Is this relative to how many you are selling?  Because you're obviously selling way more OS than any other posters.

It is by the transaction. So a single lobby counts as one, a set of 8 sold together counts as one, and a lot of 100 lobbies counts as one.

Of course this is GREATLY skewed by how many of each size we are sent! Since we get sent so many one-sheets, we auction so many more of them, and they therefore account for a greater percentage of the total dollars we took in.
