60x40s used to crop up a fair bit, but seem to be much rarer these days. ...or maybe it's that a teenage me ran out of bedroom wall and had to use the ceiling...  |

Daft question, but is that 60x40 centimetres or inches? I definitely have several big billboard sized posters including one for The Miracle Video EP.

Inches.
That was the standard size used for what you might call "subway" posters in the UK. They were used on bus shelters, but also on random walls.
I have a few, but don't think I ever saw either of the ones mentioned in OP

Hi all, A few weeks ago, I came across this Queen promo poster, that I hadn't seen before in my 37 years of collecting Queen memorabilia. It was for sale on marktplaats (sort of a dutch craiglist). I asked the seller for more specific information, but he could only tell me that it was used somewhere in (probably) the mid 70's in a dutch recordstore. As there is no record company (EMI / Elektra) mentioned on the bottem of the poster, I guess it's not offiicial promo material. Unfortunately, the poster was already sold. Does anyone know this promo poster and got some additional information about it?   |

My guess, and it is a guess, would be that it was the kind of poster you'd buy in the equivalent of a UK store called Athena.
Poster printers would licence photos and sell as many as they could.

Dug out my 'I'm Going Slighly Mad' one the other day - hopefully final house move and its never been out of its cellophane since 1991.
Currently getting framed up - just need to fine a big wall for it now!

A couple more  
The second one is thick cardboard, so presumably part of a larger display |
