Hello all - I am a 30+ year collector but new to this site. I was wondering if anyone may have perspective on E93's. I have been working toward the set and I am over half of the way there. I have some graded and some ungraded cards. I keep looking at these cards and I swear I have three different measurements among my group. One is likely trimmed but I have a little hesitation because it doesn't have the obvious signs of trimming. It is just skinny. All of the cards have the same measurements top to bottom. It is the left to right measurements that are different. There is no doubt that when I compare two of my SGC graded cards one is fatter than the other. Both have numeric grades. Neither is an "A". I don't recall issues like this on T-206. Does anyone have any perspective on this? Is it a case that perhaps multiple factories produced these cards and the factory cuts were a bit different? Any feedback would be welcomed.
Thanks! |

Welcome to the board.
Post some pics of what you are concerned with and hit up the archives to find threads on E93's.

I just completed and registered an E93 set. Looking for a Christy upgrade by the way and if you're the one that bid against me on the ebay one last weekend I kind of hate you. Just kidding. I purchased a raw Mordecai Brown and when it arrived it looked very skinny to me. I compared it to others and that was correct. I assumed it would get an A but it graded out just fine. So I think some variation in sizing exists. That's about all I can add. Good luck with the set. It is a prettttttty one.

Agreed, they can vary slightly in width - and appearance!
Good luck with your set ![]()

yup, cards definitely can vary slightly in card dimensions. Remember cards at the turn of the century weren't exactly being printed to fine tuned specifications.
