I found these numbers on the web and I think it might not be entirely accurate. The dimensions look ok but im not sure if -
1. All models III, IIIE, IV, V 13x18 / 5x7 were 129x129mm ? (Model I&II are 107x112.5)
2. It says 6x9 version IV takes the newer style but I think it still takes the III style and it changed over with the Technika70...
3. this one i'm sure about. It Says 94x100mm up to the III but It was only the III as the I&II were 87.5x90mm

if anyone can check me on 1&2 I would appreciate it.

The two I have for my Linhof Technika III, ca. 1953, measure 99x93 and 100x94. Both are marked Linhof and one has beveled bottom edge, and the second is square cut on the corners.

I've variously read that the III boards are 99x93.
