When I responded to you, I was really trying to get across that it was probably not a wire photo...it was an original photo made from the negative.

The photo is a type 1, it is apparent that it was developed from a negative and does not have the tell-tale lines of a wire photo. Everything matches up with the photo being from the game the previous day as well:

Pretty big day as Mathews went 5 for 5 in the first game and 3 for 4 in the second.
As far as being trimmed, it measures just under 4X6 so I am not sure how that would affect it.
