This Pacific Coast Biscuit Ossie Vitt card was shown in the recent D311 thread, but he nudged me and said that folks might smile, just like his owner, at the hand manipulated borders over here in this neck of the Net54 woods.

Yes, smile accomplished.
Almost as much as the Melchoir "Runs like a Sissy" card; that's my fave.

Brian, the hand-manipulated borders may have been intentionally done this way so as to be in sync with the slant of Mr. Vitt's head.

Thanks Ben and Val, and now that I look at it, Vitt does appear to be reacting to the upper right border encroachment.

Someone was forward thinking when they laminated this 1948 Bowman of Ralph Kiner for MY protection.

Brian (for safety reasons I am considering laminating all my cards that feature sluggers)

Just bought this one from a fellow member today. Now I have both T212 Weed cards Spokane and Seattle. I love cards like this with sharp corners.

Nice Ben, you were finally able to double down on your Weed purchases.

Perhaps the inverse corners are the result of a Hickey rampage gone awry.
