David,

First, I am not saying you are incorrect in the Ripken instance regarding the fake and cropping, but cropping variances alone are not proof of fake cards in other instances. I believe the 1963 Topps (along with other issues as well) have quite a bit of cropping variations of what is displayed within the border.

Cropping differences are definitely something to look for, but I just wanted to point out that these differences alone are not a validation of a counterfeit in all cases.
