Opinions appreciated!!: 1958 Topps All Star Musial.. does this look trimmed?

One of my favorite Musial cards, nice choice.

Yeah, I'm not saying the edge itself looks trimmed, necessarily, just that the borders seem a little short overall top/bottom.

And thanks!

I grew up in St Louis. I still remember opening a pack and finding that card. My first Musial. At that time I had no idea there were no prior Topps cards of him. Was fortunate to see him play in person. Have always been sad he retired after a decent 63 season, a year short of the Cardinals getting back to the World Series against the Yankees

If Stan had come back for 1964 and played halfway decent, no way the Cardinals would have traded their best pitcher for Lou Brock and without Brock, no way the Cards win anything that year.

Good point

I purchased my copy of this card back in 1980. My borders top to bottom are smaller than the borders on this card.

If you don't like anything about the card, just return it. GM is great to deal with.
