Chance to view all Nat'l Copper Plate pix

[Bob Lemke]

The front and back of each picture in the 1898-99 National Copper Plate Co. set that is being auctioned Thursday night can be seen here http://www.flickr.com/photos/collect_auctions/.

This is a rare opportunity to see some of your favorite turn-of-the-(last)-century players on what is probably their rarest "card."

Bob--Have these been measured to make sure they are not trimmed?

[Bob Lemke]

They are each the nominal 8-3/4" x 11". Since the original cutting tolerance(s) are unknown, measurement down to the millimeter would likely not be the best indicator of trimming. My inspection of corners and edges convinces me they have never been under the knife.
