Every example I have seen from this "set" has had slightly rounded corners, but they've also shown other signs of wear, so it's hard to tell how the corners started out in 1914.
Does anyone know if these cards were issued with the corners already rounded, or were they perfectly square when new?
If they started out already a bit rounded, then the SGC grade is not too crazy, since the central image is pretty clean and crease free, despite the chipping and creasing in the edge areas.
