If you care, measuring is the least affective way to ascertain successful trim jobs (any person with scissors can cut a T206 in half). A quality trimmer is most likely looking for an oversized card to cut down to the correct 2 5/8 measurement (top to bottom).
There are many T206's that measure less than 2 5/8 (top to bottom) and are completely original.
