Yes, it is smaller.
That is how it was described in the listing from one of the most experienced collectors I know. That said, everyone can make mistakes. I was hoping someone would chime in about having others like this. It's on photo type stock.

I've never heard of any connection to Burke. What leads you to believe your Maranville was produced by Burke?
