This same seller has a Southern League card, Bay, on ebay right now, recognized the large font on the description.

I won't go near this card given the seller's actions, but I'd apreciate comments on this card. It looks a little short, but about right in width. Is this a reprint?

I've attempted to scale the card by comparing to two I currently own and have measured. I tried aligning the printed black border, and seeing if I could scale the edges of the card from that. For the height, I used my Ed Lennox, which measures exactly the norm, 2.625 inches. I aligned the borders as best I could, then slid one down to match one edge, the other being short. For the width my Bender port is close, at 1.437, or 0.0005 narrow. The Bay card looks wider.

Does this method have any merit as a way to measure card dimensions? Or, is it just a geeky way to play with a photo editor?
