In case you are planning to bid on this card, it may have been trimmed on the bottom and on the right side. |

I will say, in comparing them side by side, it does look like the ebay card has some a more space above johnson's head than on mine - so I guess it could also be miscut - any other opinions? |

I think it's just miscut. I didn't notice any cards in that collection that looked trimmed. |

With all the writing on the back, I wonder how much the possible trim aspect of the card will really effect this auction? |

I find the allusion to Johnson trimming to be a religious insult to those who prefer it raw and natural. And this discussion should be deleted in its entireity. |

...it was not trimmed. I think the way the corners are rounded at the bottom -- i.e., more rounded at the bottom than on the sides -- is further evidence that this is a miscut. |

I only won one card from him, but I paid with a check. He did mark it payment received on Sep 25th so I should see it soon. Will post when I get it. |

Well, you can definitely see that the cut is different because there is still image to the left of Johnson's shoe on the raw PC and the extra sky above Johnson on the raw PC matches up with the less space below the name on the bottom of the PC. |

my guess is that if the card were trimmed it was a long time ago...the wear looks pretty even... |

What an odd way to do business for someone with 100% feedback and over 1000 transactions. I guess I'll email him and tell him that I won only one card and that I have no intention of bidding on another so he can go ahead and send me my card. |

I finally received an e-mail yesterday saying that the Rixey Exhibit I won had been shipped. Not bad, only 14 days after I mailed the money order. That is, if it has been shipped. I checked last night and he had yet to receive feedback from anyone who had won an Exhibit. Not worried yet, lots of positive feedback but will affect my bidding on future lots. |

I need to ammend my earlier comment, seller's feedback shows 2 feedback left by a buyer for a Groh and Barnes Exhibit left on 10/6. |

Ummm..so Adam, Dan others..received your cards yet? I sent payment on 9/19... received email 9/25 that they received payment...and that once payment "clears" your item will be sent...but I sent a USPS MO not a personal check. |

Mail has run today. No exhibit. Sent another follow up e-mail to seller stating that his slow shipping policy would likely discourage repeat bidding. |

Got an e-mail response from the seller a few minutes ago. Said that he shipped out 150 this week. I will let you know when I get it. |

No wonder it took so long to ship; the packaging was the most overblown thing I've seen since my last auction house win came in. I got a box the size of a phone book with several feet of bubble wrap encasing another box that had another pile of bubble wrap enclosing several postal envelopes that housed the cards individually. Way more elaborate than needed; I can't imagine doing 150 of them like that. Only gripe I had (besides it taking 3 weeks for him to ship an item paid for by Postal MO) was that I did pay for insurance which was not applied to the package. |

I would like to add that I was pleased with the overall condition as well. As an earlier poster surmised the typing looks to have been done by inserting the botton of the EX behnd the ribbon. Cards have definitely not been through the roller. |

Hey mine arrived too over the weekend. It was packed very securely and the card is really in great shape for its age. And yes it was not rolled through a typewriter. |
