Yes, I know. When I scan the images this is the size that's produced. One thing that this has allowed is for me to see my cards "up close" for the first time; usually, I look at them through the plastic sheets that I have in my binder. It has been a bit of a shock that a number of the ungraded cards that I thought to be in "excellent" condition are really very good to excellent due to corner wear. With prices as expensive for cards in legitimate ex-to-ex/mint condition (not the eBay interpretations) it would cost too much to do the upgrades. Unless there is some super deal I run across, I will have to live with what I have collected. The fact that I was able to put a set together with cards that are relatively nice, plus the pleasure I receive just looking at them, I am fortunate indeed.
