Lyndon,
    The Ilford website doesn't list any non-standard sizes, but if you read
their propaganda about the company it speaks of how flexible their
facilities are for production and their willingness to cater to special film
needs.  I'm investigating just how flexible.
    In regards to unusual size film in general, perhaps individuals with
like needs could make group orders at certain intervals of time if this
would improove price and availability.
