All the Type 3 cards I have seen, besides one which was obviously cut down, appear to be machine cut, are a larger size (both aspects fairly obvious in the scan of Todd's Rixey card) and are at least twice the thickness of the other two types of W573, as well as E120 cards, for that matter.

I am surprised that I have never seen any mention of these 'different' W573 cards before. Just shows you how little regard collectors have had toward W573 cards, and strip cards in general, that this fairly significant difference was not previously reported before.
