BTW, there's no Super Technirama; it's just** Technirama.

roughly,

23 x 36 mm = 2.35 for Scope (equivalent to 18.8mm x 44.1mm image in a flat format)
24 x 35 mm = 2.20 for 70mm (equivalent to 19.5mm x 43mm image in a flat format)
Common area to that^ : 23mm x 35mm = 2.30


Super Technirama is Technirama printed on 70mm prints (22.1mm x 48.6mm) which was king.
Techniramas printed in 70mm are shown in bold on the list.

(Technirama 35mm Scope 2.35 prints (equivalent to 12.6mm x 29.6mm flat) would have 0.67 x 0.67 = 45% the grain of CinemaScope shot movies, increased sharpness and no splice marks)

If original negatives are preserved could be a fine source for UHDs
