Thanks guys. I appreciate the input. I guess I still don't quite know the answer to my question - if someone says a card is 1/16" short, does that mean short to the published standard dimensions? If published dimensions are "normal", then I'd expect lots and lots and lots of cards to be "short" because of the inherent manufacturing variation mentioned above.

I thought maybe there was a minimum T/B and a minimum S/S that was known or published somewhere. Sometimes PSA will return cards for "minimum size", so I thought there might be a standard somewhere.

And somehow, I did manage to be smart enough to check price guides and Lew's Encyclopedia looking for minima. Not sure how that happened - must have been a good day.
