How consistent is 1933 Delong sizing?

Is the 2” x 3” sizing consistent? Received one that is off by 1/32” both directions. Condition is poor, well rounded corners etc. Not seeing the point of a trim unless it was a looooong time ago.

I have collected some Delongs but don't know if they came in size differences. Many of our cards were in fact trimmed long ago to fit into albums, holders etc.... If you can post a scan it would help a lot.

I just sent my first DeLong to SGC. When it comes back, I’ll be happy to post a scan for comparison.
