Default Is it a trim - 55 Aaron on eBay

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1955-Topps-H...YAAOSwuk1Z07nq

Having looked at many "trim" cards - I believe that when you have a set of corners come to an "abnormal" point with the perception of a "curve" leading into those corners - you almost always have a trim job.

I suspect that the right side of this Aaron fits this description -

Your thoughts?

If this one is a trim - it was totally unnecessary

I see the curve that you speak of, also seems to me the top half of the left side seems wavy though it could be the photo. Also holder seems to have extra room in it.. Agreed if they cut it was a shame card has great color and gloss... wouldn't bid at that start price..Tim

When you click his other items, his other two "big cards" the '51 Bowman and '52 Topps Mays are in PSA Authentic slabs, so my guess is something is wrong with the Aaron as well.

This will soon be for sale by Battlefield in its raw state and it will be breathtaking.

Seller’s use of PSA in the listing’s title is curious since the card was graded by

Scissors

If it weren't trimmed, they would have a legitimate grader.
