That card does appear trimmed, but I sympathize with 3rd party graders at times with OJs. Unless you are real familiar with the set, it can be tough. The variation in card size can be substantial with the 1887 Brooklyn cards (excluding the Brooklyn minis) and the 1889/90 cards being the largest. You then have the Script cards as the smallest and the Fa/Fb cards not far behind. It's not uncommon for a single border to be cut short but this 1889 looks short on more than one side and may not even have a straight cut.

Card looks suspicious, but I'd like to see in person. W.r.t. photo quality, not so nice but we all know that doesn't factor into grade as of yet.
