Pete,
It's understandable. He has been in that damn air tight case for some time now. If this was a Pixar movie, the case would be empty tomorrow! I noticed him moving a bit also. He needs to breathe! :)
Peace, Mike

Not so sure the clipped corners indicate anything as REA suggests "One theory is that these six cards originated from a group of six sheets, stacked on top of one another, that were identically miscut in the lower left corner and along the right side to create the fascinating appearance that we see today. Since they did not meet proper specifications, they were discarded".
There were many (including these) in a recent goldin auction (http://www.goldinauctions.com/1909_11_t206_near_complete_set_of_518_524_cards_wi-lot10848.aspx#)
To note I do have a bid in :D

One word I would never think to use to describe those T206's clipped corners is fascinating. It wasn't very fascinating when I did that to a rare Jack Johnson scissor card by accident...The decrease in value was not terribly fascinating either!
