There is a larger cabinet card called an Imperial, Imperial cabinet card, that measures 7" x 10". I have several mounted photographs - mounts 14" x 12", photos 9" x 7", dating from 1895-1910. I have another with a mount size of 20"x 18." It is a portrait shot of a great uncle that dates from the early 1940s.
