Matt,
PM sent. How could one resist such elegant prose even if most of the irregularities were more recently effected!

"However, under the most unforgiving scrutiny, almost every example can be seen to yield a subtle discrepancy. Most of the pieces concede an irregularity at one edge, or more (sometimes these imprecise cuts are period in nature, while some were effected in more recent times), or their borders show slight, isolated abrasions."

Well - that clears up what was altered on the cards...

Taggart: God darnit, Mr. Lamarr, you use your tongue prettier than a twenty dollar whore.

Does anyone have a clue what that description is about? I know no more about those cards after reading it than before.

Are you sure you didn't just ignore the more informative passages?

Barry,

I think that is the long-handed version of "These cards are trimmed."

You guys are harsh. There is a complicated artform to turning a 1 word description of the condition, "trimmed," into a full paragraph to fill a page and making it sound like a good thing in the process. Show some appreciation!

I don't know about you guys but after having read that description I've suddenly gotten a burning desire to give up 10K to join a hobby trade association.
