The way T206's were cut, there is a wide range of acceptable sizes. So, it's sometimes hard to determine if a card is "short" or just cut that way from the factory. I always prefer to see more meat under the name then what is presented here in your link, but it's subjective.

Re: Waddell verus Flick...

Waddell was considered one of the best pitchers of the dead ball era, leading the league in K's (6 straight years) and ERA multiple times, and a career ERA just over 2. Not to mention, he was quite a colorful, eccentric character. Maybe even a cult figure of sorts.

Flick was a good hitter, with some solid numbers, but I'd take Waddell over Flick every time.
