Hullo! New user and first post in the forum ![Pleased](https://forum.casebook.org/core/images/smilies/clipart/pleased.gif)
Does anyone know the actual dimensions of the From Hell letter? Or any of its counterparts
(I got curious about this after seeing replicas of the letter on Etsy and wondered how accurate they could possibly be... I have no intention of buying one, mind you)
I've looked on a few sites for this, and tried to look through this forum to see if the question has already been asked/answered, and thus far I've not seen any information. Wherever I've looked the focus always seems to fall on the handwriting, the spelling and grammar, or the "kidne" itself. I know that it's possible to kind of guess based on a few different factors, but yeah. Like, looking at it I'd assume a sort of A6 size, but I am also assuming that in 1888 paper sizes weren't standardised like they are now.
I know the original is missing, and that we only have the copies to go by, so if we don't already have this information then I wouldn't be surprised if it's unobtainable.
I am very sorry if this question has already been asked, or if the answer is easily obtainable and I've just failed to see it. If so, please feel free to delete![Pleased](https://forum.casebook.org/core/images/smilies/clipart/pleased.gif)
