I know there is a wide size range on m116s, but the top border looks way too small.

Look at the seller's "handle".

- to all m116 Matty's being short. I've noticed that also, so I wonder how they were printed and cut. The m116's were issued in series - a new series added each week - so the Matty might have always been printed at the top of the sheet. Anyone know of any other m116's that are consistently short?

Scott, you saw how big my Abby was that you submitted to SGC. The m116 I recently aquired for $20 (SGC 70) is shorter than the Abby but nowhere nearly as short as this Matty. Even my 2 unslabbed m116s that I think might be trimmed are not that short.

If you look closely at the top left I believe you can make out a significant wavy look....otherwise, this would be the shortest legit M116 I have seen....understanding there are some size differences.....but usually the borders are wide on these.....at least most that I see...regards all

I think this one looks very possibly legit.

My Matty M116 Pastel has an only slightly more substantial top border, but it has a slightly less substantial lower border. My card has great centering, so it look like the one pictured here, just a little bit better centered (the one auctioned here sits kinda high).

I think it's probably good to go, based on the scan.
