Yes, the sizes are all over the place.
And I believe yes, that card is larger than standard.

That’s interesting. I have seen PSA reject cards for being too large. For example, when a card has been in a screw down.

I think cards with oversized borders will continue to be desirable especially from a doctors standpoint to the point that now and even more so in the future people will think cards have oversized borders when they’re really the way they were supposed to be .

There's been a lot of short high grade cards talked about recently...so I think these, with larger than average borders, are refreshing to see.

Also...the Proof is an honorable mention.
