Default Pre War Cards W/Big Borders?

Will Pre War cards with larger borders command a premium in the future? Besides lower grade cards with nice aesthetics will the thing to look for be cards, known to be candidates for trimming, with larger borders? And will there be a premium in the future (or is there one now)?

With the number of trimmed cards out there, I'm surprised there are even big-bordered cards left!

I have big bordered T206 cards that were trimmed poorly in the distant past (imagine how large they once were!). So I guess these cards need to be identified as big bordered cards with no trimming.

I would think that big borders might become a big thing for those in the know.

I have always chased large borders. I could see a premium attached in the future like centering has received.

That's a great card. I have a question: are there wide discrepancies in the sizing for this set? Is that card larger than the standard 1-7/16 x 2-5/8 size for that set?

I hope even poorly cut ones like this E220 card (and E220's in general) will increase a hundredfold in value, and then perhaps I will become a multi-kamillionaire.
