I asked Helen at Adorama to look into stocking Ilford FP4 in 11X14.

This would depend of course on demand. So I am asking how many people would buy this film if it was in stock at Adorama for order or pick up at any time. She needs to know what the demand is.

This started when I was inquiring about stocking a 25 speed film like Efke for those of us who require this films characteristic when applied to alternate processes. Their paper comes from a European source and is made to order for Adorama. I was hoping they could get film in this size too.

Is anyone interested? If so then let Adorama know.

I'd buy 1-2 boxes per year.

Yeah, HP5+ is a stock item in 11x14. FP4+ is not.

Hp5 does the job perfectly well in 11x14 as a stock item for me. The extra film speed comes in handy.

Ilford have a once a year call out for orders for odd sized sheet film sizes - When you get the call order what you want for the year and that is it - I presume the USA companies that re-sell order in bulk to make it worthwhile for Ilford

Check the Harman Tech'/Ilford website for details

From what I've gotten in response it's appearent that it's such a small market that the demand isn't there. The yearly run by Ilford is the last choice.
