German term or phrase: 3 x 1/3 Streifenanzeige 4c
This describes the type of advertising the company is doing. I'm assuming the 3 x 1/3 refers to the size and the 4c is four colors. Not sure what to do with the Streifenanzeige. Can I just use "column"? Is there a specific term?
Thanks for any suggestions you might have.

Learning something new every day is what makes translating so interesting, isn't it?

I should add that I've worked for three newspapers (in the US and Germany), and 'strip ad' is what they were always called.

agree BirgitBerlin: indeed. The strip can be horizontally or vertically arranged across the edge of a page (if it is horizontal it is usually the bottom of the page)
