1908 Detroit Free Press trimmed?

[Baseball Rarities]

Here is a better scan of the uncut sheet. I do not remember where I stole the scan from, so sorry for not giving proper credit.

The top edge is definitely hand cut. The other three edges look to be fairly straight.

If someone with tech skills could load that McIntyre photo to the Old Cardboard Site it would be appreciated. They have the wrong photo on their now. Thanks

It appears to me that all of the top 4 cards would HAVE to be cut "short" at the bottom or else the top borders of the second-row cards would be way short. The bottom row has all that extra white bottom-border that you see on Jeff's Cobb. If Cobb was on the bottom row of his sheet, then that explains Jeff's but doesn't explain mine (or the "short" Rossman) since you (Kevin) say that all sheets have the same layout. Maybe they started hand-cutting the bottom row so they would be uniform?
