Default Size variations on bowman cards
Though this is regarding a FB issue I think it is an issue with Bowman cards in general so I am placing it here. (would be glad to re-locate it if more appropriate elsewhere).

I have a 1955 Bowman FB set. A few cards stood out as what appears to be trimmed. I sent in the stars to be graded before I noticed this and they all came back as good except one. I've taken what I believe is a good 55 Bowman card from my commons and used it to compare. I am finding cards that match for the most part but there are many that do not - both bigger and smaller. Is there slight variation in the original sizing that is considered acceptable?
