Ian Price asked where he could purchase the large color wallcharts showing various film and sound formats. They are very useful for teaching and understanding the various formats that have been used for presenting motion-pictures.

The wall charts are published by the British Kinematograph and Sound Society (BKSTS) in London. They sell the charts via their website:

In the United States, the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) imports and sells the charts:

These wallcharts will "spruce-up" any projection room, and are very useful in explaining the various film formats to new employees and visitors.

Yes, A friend of mine actually framed them and has them on his office wall. They really are nice.
