Hand cut cards question
 
Wanted to know if anyone has submitted any hand cut cards to grading services and what were the results . I've recently purchased 3 1941 Playball cards that appear to be hand cut from a sheet( unevenly cut ) not trimmed and was thinking of having those grade or at least slabbed . Also purchased a 1948 Bowman that appears to be the same (unevenly cut) and is graded by SGC as authentic . I don't believe the Bowman to be trimmed either as the cuts are very un- straight . Any input will be appreciated. Thanks, Brett

PSA does not give sheet-cut cards a number grade if they were initially distributed as single cards. Only if they came off a page (like cereal box, box bottom, magazine page, etc). Your best hope is for Authentic.
The general rule of thumb for those is to make straight cuts (some use professional cutters) right outside the marker card border. Cutting into/inside the card border gets you an A instead of number as well.
