6 × 4.5 in oval labels
In metric, 6 × 4.5 in oval is 152 × 114 mm; in everyday terms, a little smaller than a 4 × 6 photo. Typical homes for it: a half-dozen cupcake box top (7.5 × 5 in); a 12 oz coffee pouch front (5.25 × 7.5 in). That is space for about 22 lines of roughly 73 characters at 8 pt – enough for a full-size UPC-A barcode with a line or two above it.
