Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>It is the same card.<br /><br />I didn't think it could be since that was just the other day... but it is.<br /><br /><br />Either Hunt Auctions was being very cautious in making the card out to be worse than it really is...<br /><br />or PSA disagrees with Hunt Auctions in regard to the "trimming" issue.<br /><br /><br />Then again, Hunt Auctions did specifically say that any possible trimming was done "in period" (back in 1909)...<br /><br />so this would explain why an examination of the edges by PSA would NOT reveal and recent trimming.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>Philosophically I think it does matter.<br /><br />I don't mind a card that some 12-year-old trimmed slightly to fit it in his scrapbook in 1909.<br /><br />I just don't want a card that has been shaved by some unscrupulous dealer in 1987.<br /><br /><img src="/images/sad.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br /><br />Price-wise, apparently, it does matter as well... since PSA has "confirmed" that it was not recently trimmed...<br /><br />and the price is 100% greater than the recent ungraded hammer price.

Posted By: <b>tbob</b><p>"Period trimming", is that like "sheet cut" which was the reason SGC wouldn't grade my M116 Blue Background Bresnahan which looks like an easy 70, maybe an 80?

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>To see if the Reserve was reasonable, unreasonable, or just about right.<br /><br />Here is my way of looking at it:<br /><br />If I want the card but don't want to spend a penny more than $35,000 for it...<br /><br />I want to know RIGHT NOW whether I have a shot or whether or not I can spend that $35k elsewhere.<br /><br />Now that I have been outbid, I am free to shop!!!
