Oversized American Beauty
 
Posted By: <b>Martin Neal</b><p>Is there such a thing? I sent this in to sgc and it came back as trimmed. I hadn't paid a whole lot of attention to it other than hoping it would come back as vg. After getting it back and inspecting it, I noticed the borders were kind of wavy, but then I noticed how large the borders were for an American Beauty. Possibly hand cut? <br><br><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e268/123MARTINS/lakeambeauty1.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e268/123MARTINS/lakeambeautyb.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br><img src="http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e268/123MARTINS/lakeambecomp.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br>
