Unfortunately, not true, Jeff. There are several pre-war caramel cards which have been trimmed, in authentic holders, with the Lionel Carter pedigree. I own a few myself. I think what you meant was that Lionel did not trim or alter the cards himself and I would agree with that 100%, but he may have purchased or traded for cards which had been trimmed or altered.
