How would you explain “eight-by-ten” here? He pointed to a yellow ribbon pinned on the wall between a signed eight-by-ten glossy of a daytime soap star and a faded newspaper clipping of a man with a giant catfish splayed over the hood of a red Ford pickup with a rusted front quarter panel. How would you explain “eight-by-ten” here? Thanks!

Eight-by-ten = eight inches by ten inches. This was one of the standard sizes of a photograph (note the photo is called a "glossy" here). The person has an autographed photo of a TV star.

It refers to the size of the glossy (photo). It measures 8 inches by 10 inches.
