Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>I'm concerned this postcard of Heinie Groh is trimmed. What do you think?<br><br><a href="http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e278/ccmcnutt/?action=view&current=6ea2_1JPG.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e278/ccmcnutt/6ea2_1JPG.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

Posted By: <b>Joe Hunter</b><p>Here are a couple of 1919 Reds postcards I am sure are not trimmed. They both measure 3 1/2 x 5 1/2". There appears to be more space at the bottom of the card between the "Cincinnati "Reds" World Champions 1919" and the bottom border of the card on my examples than on yours. So your suspicions may be correct.<br>href="http://s47.photobucket.com/albums/f186/912345-2008/?action=view¤t=42707365-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f186/912345-2008/42707365-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>It does appear to be trimmed, but can't say for sure. If you have a standard postcard that you know for certain is not altered I would lay this one on top of it to check for any difference in size.

Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>Thanks for the feedback. I found it on eBay and it had a very reasonable BIN. The seller, who had great feedback, said he'd take it back if there was a problem, so I decided to take a chance on it ...
