Re: An Hour of Indecision
+1. I looked closely at it as well and didn't bid since it looked trimmed to me.

The edge at the bottom left of the card looks a little suspicious, no expert on trimming though. I'm hoping that it isn't trimmed, best of luck.

Yeah, trimming at the top with the roughness plus the little bat ear on the right edge kept me spooked for my hour of indecision until I said the hell with it, got to take a chance once in a blue moon, and pulled the trigger. Even if it comes back authentic I figure it is probably worth $500 and the adventure is priceless.

Whenever cards looked trimmed to me, I try to get a good view of the corner and look for the "bat ear", which is almost inevitable with a slight trim. This card has that telltale sign on the top right corner, which you can see great in the scan provided. So I'd say it is more than likely trimmed
