Tough to give an opinion without seeing the card in person, but, like Frank says, the trimming kills the card.
What i don't understand is why someone would trim the sides but not the top (to remove the pinholes). I assume the sides were cut to make the card look better, so why not the top too. I can understand not trimming the bottom because you'd have to trim the name off.
If i saw this card on Ebay with that picture i would assume it was a Mike Wheat reprint with trimming. I can't tell from your pics whether it really is an old card or not, but trust that in the pics you have in hand you know the difference.
I can't give a value, because i wouldn't buy it, but that doesn't mean plenty of others wouldn't.
