American Beauty T205 to short
 

Posted By: <b>R.A</b><p>Just picked up a T-205 with American Beauty back on ebay, the card measures short from top to bottom and is a bit more wide from side to side. I know that T-206 American Beauty backs are somewhat narrower, is this also true for T-205's.<br /><br />P.S. This my first post here, great site.

American Beauty T205 to short
 

Posted By: <b>Matt E.</b><p>Quoting from the 2007 SCD Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards I picked up this morning.<br /><br />"The cards nominally measure 1-7/16" x 2-5/8" although many cards, even though untrimmed or unaltered, measure somewhat less than those dimensions in length and or width".<br /><br />Out of the couple hundred T205's I have a few measure just a bit short, but I prefer the ones that measure correctly for resale. It is an uneasy feeling until you get it graded.<br /><br />
