Default Restoring cards vs restoring photos

Posted By: hankron

One thing I have found objectionable in recent MastroNet auctions are news service photos of Gehrig, Ruth or such that have recently cut perfect razor sharp edges. MastroNet has detailed that they were recently cut, so I'm not objecting to the catalog's description. But there's no reason to crop the edges of a 1920s photo so it looks Minty. I find it distasteful, especially since the owner can matt out a ragged edge if he doesn't like it.
