1951 Bowman 126 Dick Wildung, 135 Jack Linninger, and 144 Bill Dudley can come with this blue line. That it stops half way up Wildung could indicate it isn't a cutting line, but sure is placed exactly where the cut would be centered.

The Linninger additionally comes with a variant with a broken blue line extending deep into the border.

[G1911]

Also occurs on 117 Wozniak, but the line doesn't run the full length of the card. Wozniak was above Wildung, and it is possible he was also below Dudley.

EDIT: Also note the 'blue apostrophe' in upper left border.

Bought a lot of ~450 1974 Topps for a nickel a pop and found this one in it. Checking online it is recurring, with the border break in the right side being less common than the correct card but not too difficult. 1974 Topps #268 Randy Beisler

[G1911]

And 1974 Topps #89 Riley Odoms, with a cut line at top. This only occurs on some cards; even those cut with a slightly larger top that 'should' show the line if it was on every sheet do not always have it. Presumably this occurs on other cards in that sheet row.

Odoms is the first card on the row and Elmo Wright is to his right, the line barely goes into Wright and then stops. I don't think it is a cutting suggestion line, those lines were prevalent on Topps sheets in the 60's-70's when they would fuse together two different sections of rows on a sheet. The line can also be found on the bottom of 1974 OJ Simpson Record Breaker and the Dolphin to his right.

Thank you. The 4th card Dolphin is #365 Manny Fernandez, looks like I got 3 more to go get. Why does it have to be OJ though...

It's definitely not to guide the physical cutting of the individual sheet, I don't know the word to use describe a 'cut and paste' line marker.

1948 Leaf #2 Steve Suhey. First I've seen with this white defect on the right side; not the normal offset ink layer you see on Leafs all the time.
