1983 Donruss factory sets

[55koufax]

trimmed !

Open up any 1983 Donruss Factory Set and you won't be happy with the cuts. Many miscuts . Terrible quality control at that time. So cards that look trimmed could have been made that way at the factory.

Weird. I would think since they are factory sets they might be cut better.

I contacted the seller of my card. He said mine was almost certainly from a factory set. He submitted the card himself.

The cards from 1984 Donruss are notorious for being smaller than the ones from packs. It makes sense that the 1983 cards might have been as well.

Can I see a picture?

I sold the card with full disclosure many years ago, so don't have a picture anymore.

Are you saying they look trimmed because of the size or are you saying the cut itself actually looks different? By miscut I am guessing OC cards and not the cut itself actually looking different.
