Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>Mark - I can email you exact measurements this evening, but it measures at the shorter end of untrimmed sizes for M116s. I had a Mathewson M116 that was untrimmed that measured about the same.

Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>Mark - you didn't leave your email - it measures a little over 2 1/2&quot; (maybe 2 17/32 if my ruled had 32nds) tall and 1.5&quot; wide. <br><br><br><br>

Posted By: <b>Mark T</b><p>M116 should measure 1 1/2 X 2 5/8 (as you probably know), best thing to check it with is a digital caliper. They are pretty cheap to buy and give you .0001 of an inch so you can measure more accurately.<br><br>If it would measure 2.620 then you are ok but it seems like its off .100 which would validate your assumption of it being trim would be correct. <br><br>Nice card in any event....

Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>Mark - as you know the M116 vary greatly in size (I think the SCD actually says they vary more then other period issues). As I mentioned, I owned an M116 Matty that measured almost the same (it was 2.5&quot; exact) that had been in a scrapbook for 90+ years and was certainly not trimmed (and graded as such). <br><br><br><br>
