Hi there! I need to purchase a 4-bladed Saunders Easel in for my advanced black & white class at Santa Monica College. I need either the 14x17" or 16x20" size; the 11x14" one won't do.

Shipping would be to Culver City, CA. I have a Paypal account in good standing

Thank you!

To help you avoid a potential source of confusion....

The Saunders easel that most people consider to be an 11x14 easel has an exterior frame that allows it to be used as a fixed size easel for 14x17 paper. For that reason, I have seen some describe that easel as a 14x17 easel.

It would be a really good idea for anyone dealing long distance with one of these to pin down what you mean when you refer to the size.

Thanks, Matt... that's really good advice! In fact, I've been seeing exactly what you're pointing out on eBay, where there are adverts for 14x17's but in the closeup photos it's clear that they're adjustable to 11x14.

Ok, the one I have says on the cover of the box:

Saunders-Omega Four-Bladed 14" x 17" Enlarging Easel (U1417)
When the blades are completely towards the edges the opening is 11" x 14"
So, you learn something every day.
