Good. Just to clarify. The back must cover the full 4x5 frame; not a small portion of it. So as not to be picky, let's say it must cover at least 90% of the frame.
Any larger back, say 10x8, would of course also count. And by selling, we mean a single back on sale to the public. Not the unit price for 10,000 to a back manufacturer.
