Drew, if your Williams card was that close to original size, how could you be sure it was trimmed at all? I mean, less than 1/64th of an inch is VERY close to full size! And I see some minor variations in Topps cards all the time (and I'm pretty sure my cards aren't trimmed). When I've seen a trimmed card, there's been no doubt in my mind about it. Was the top of the Williams card uneven, or was there other obvious proof of a cut?
