"Just a little off the sides"
 
Some of these Hostess and Hostess Twinkies baseball cards just never fit right in the box. Cards meet "Paper-Cutter".

Love the vintage pile of scrap next to the cutter! Very cool...

Man, I loved collecting those as a kid...and I was very careful when cutting them out. Ding Dongs, SuzyQs...and cards...cmon, that's American as it gets! Mine are all lost to time, with all my Kellogg's cards as well. One day I'll jump in the pool and re-aquire. Thanks for sharing!

Keep honing your skills - maybe someday you can work for Probstein!

Always wondered. This is not the same thing as trimming a card, right? I have a Jello Bob Aspromonte that was poorly cut out. I could easily trim it to look great? (and it would fit into my binder card slot).

These cards are made to be cut! Break out the scissors, you are fine!
