Although there is considerable difference between the condition of the Lewis and Alcott cards, since both cards were removed from their undamaged manufacturers original containers, one could argue that both cards are in mint (uncirculated) condition.

Of course then, it follows that cards which are off center, miscut, containing print spots and poorly focused are also in mint condition, if they have not been handled nor exposed to light.

I guess it depends on what your definition of "is" is.
