Default Opinion on this American Beauty

Does anyone think this card is trimmed?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I've only been looking at these a few weeks and realize AB's are thinner than other backs, but this one looks a little "too" thin to me. And maybe a little weird at the bottom.

What do you think?

Maybe it's just me, but the right border looks off. Kind of cuts inward toward the picture of the card, while the left border stays relatively the same.

Can't really tell about the bottom. Might be in graded holder or penny sleeve in a top loader. Interesting that the seller is in Eudora, KS, which is a small town between Lawrence (University of Kansas) and KC. Use to drive thru it all the time when I was going to college.

Best Regards,
Craig

Is it unusual for the decorative swirlys on the back to be so tight to both sides?

I don't think it's necessarily trimmed. I've had a few of the AB 350's including this one and they are narrow to the point of cutting out a portion of the design on the sides.
