I am not sure how to ask this. I have a 35" tube tv. The largest tube tv was made by Sony at 40". Both had traditional television aspect ratios. Now, if I got a widescreen tv and I wished to watch old academy ratio movies or traditional aspect ratio tv shows in their original aspect ratio (so that the sides of the widescreen tv were dark), approximately what size widescreen tv would I need to be able to at least get what I have in interms of screen size? What size would I need to get the screen size of the 40" sony tube tv? What is the traditonial screen size offered by various common sizes of widescreen tv: 40"; 42"; 50", 55", or 60"?
