Album of Trimmed T206s?

The cards look okay to me and were probably glued into the album a long time ago, although I admit the top border of the Purtell looks a little funky. But there is no logical reason for someone to trim the top border and then glue it into an album. Makes no sense.

And while I respect Scott B.'s opinion about vintage baseball cards as much as anyone's, Matt is correct that it does not help explain why the cards may or may not be original. In the context of this album having been assembled a long time ago, there would be no incentive for anyone to have trimmed these cards. Most have full original borders, a few have slightly irregular cuts.
