vintage card that was recently professionally cut.
Therefore, the total value of the number of individually graded cards with an AUTHENTIC grade cut from vintage uncut sheet will NOT
exceed the value of that intact sheet. There are uncut sheet collectors (like myself) that are willing to pay a premium for vintage complete sheets.

Stick to T206s, Ted. This one is a bit out of your scope of expertise. You might want to do more listening rather than lecturing. Routinely trimmed cards make it into holders, both SGC and PSA holders. The guys who are able to trim one edge of a card without detection can trim four edges of a card without detection. Just takes longer and in the case of this sheet their effort will be greatly rewarded. You are showing your inexperience in this arena if you simply assume the card doctor who wins this particular sheet is gonna take a knife to the sheet and place the cards in Card Saver 1s and submit them. Other steps will be taken to mimic the cut and tone the edges though knowing the right people in the hobby could cut out some steps.
