Gloss that ends before the edge of the card (1960 Topps).. Unusual?
Hey guys, maybe I'm being paranoid, but, I got this card raw on Ebay and noticed that the gloss ends before the edge of the card, and the card also has a distinct smell.. I'm being paranoid that it was reglossed, but I don't know much about it.

The surface of the card looks - lumpy??? Is the picture magnified a lot?

Yeah, it's zoomed in quite a bit. It's a 1960 Topps Willie McCovey, so you can get an idea of how zoomed in it is.

I think I'd be very worried about a card that had a smell. That is not normal for a card that looks like it's in otherwise good shape. If it had water damage and had a mildew odor, that would be different. You didn't say, but what kind of smell? Fresh paint/gloss type smell? Then that would be something to worry about.

I'll have to give it another sniff tonight. I noticed a smell almost immediately, and I don't know if it was in retrospect, after seeing the gloss, that it struck me as possibly varnish-ish... ? Or something like that. I was hoping someone could definitely say the gloss not extending to the edge is unusual, and from there worry more about the smell. ?
