T206 guys help me out: Is this card trimmed?

[Luke]

Thanks for responding Conor. I definitely agree about the top right and bottom right corners flaring out. To me it looks like the cut on the right side curves in and makes the corners flare out. And the cut on the left side looks like it curves outward. Does anyone else see that?

I think cut from a sheet in the factory

You rarely, if ever, see a wavy factory cut on a T206. Maybe you do on some of the 50's-70's cards, but almost never on a T206. But yes, definitely trimmed (even if it does measure correctly).

Hand cut from scrap from the factory floor

This is the card Mastro practiced on before the Wagner?

It's starting to sound like I've got a $10k card on my hands

I think it's NOT trimmed. Take a look at all four edges and see if they all have the same color and striations. If one of them is bright white, that's a good tell that it was trimmed. Based on the borders I can see in the scan, I am guessing all four edges would look similarly cut and worn.

It indeed appears trimmed; sticks out like a sore thumb.
