Ticket size.

Not knowing where to start, I had a look at other examples of tickets and their dimensions.
I particularly liked the wide ticket for the 1972 Munich games, and the large space allows for a really nice design,


I have also looked at alternative dimensions  The ticket (above) is for the 1932 Olympic Entry ticket for Berlin. The dimensions for the ticket were 5 X 2.8 inches. This made for a slimmer ticket and is slightly more conventional.

To get a better sense of the scale, I decided to measure the dimensions on paper and create a blank ticket. This was, as mentioned, to get a sense of scale and how I could hold it in my hand.




I also did the same for the Munich 1972 ticket. The dimensions were 14.85 x 10.5 cm.




 A side by side comparison



It's considerably larger than the 1932 ticket, it feels more like an invite rather than a ticket. Perhaps I could use the smaller one for the ticket and the wide one for an invite.
