You and me both Jimmy. I wouldn't have ever suspected trimming before joining this site. As you were able to see it was trimmed I too was able to identify the same issue.

VERY nice card though. I'd love to own it.

Another thing is that the seller seems not to know what "prolific" means; they seem to think it's a general positive descriptor, like "terrific". Calling it a "prolific" card doesn't make any sense, unless this card has created a bunch of new cards.

I wish all my Cobb cards would start getting prolific and begat a bunch of little Cobbs.

I think they're making assumptions based on the wavy cut.

However, I disagree. The borders still look too wide to have been trimmed. Maybe I'm wrong, but those borders sure like wide.
