I am not sure if I am in the minority or not. I don't go out of my way to buy trimmed cards but I if I stumble on to a card that is otherwise nice except for a trim and assuming the trim is done reasonbly well, it really doesn't bother me. As longer as it is marketed as trimmed, I will decide to buy it or not based on the card and the "mood" that I am in. Had I seen this Anson, it would have been mine, no question. The trim doesn't take away from the shear beauty of this 19th Century gem.
