I don't see what you see, weird.

It does seem to be very modest, and maybe it's just because we've all been staring at it forever on a screen that we start seeing things.

But if you compare the height of the top white border on the top left side to the height of the top border on the top right side, it seems like the one on the top left side is slightly bigger. The difference is so minor as to be almost imperceptible.

Back Scan Please

Is that slanty top border really all that minor? It stuck out like a sore thumb to me before anyone shared similar thoughts. Because photos and scans can be deceptive, I just kept quiet, but glad to see that I'm not alone in this.

But yes, a back scan would be interesting to see.

Just for additional information, a customer purchased a Bowman card from me and submitted it to SGC.

It came back as NO. We were able to get a reason from SGC as he thought it meant reprint. The reason it came back from SGC is that there was moisture detected with the card and encapsulating it would damage the card over time. So maybe that is another reason it was returned.
