There were no factory sets in 1971, but some dealers in the 70’s sold complete sets (Fritsch, Galasso, etc.). Presumably he means he got one of these.
Topps cards in 2020 don’t even all measure the same size, open a pack and look carefully at the cards in a stack and you can see the difference. Plenty of legit over and undersize 1971’s. Impossible to issue any judgement without pics, but size isn’t the be all and end all of trimming.
