Colgan's - Trimming?
Posted By: Jeff Mohler
This might be a stupid question....but is trimming an issue with Colgans? I though I might try to pick up a few on the Bay, but many of them are ungraded and I don't have any experience with these cards. |

Colgan's - Trimming?
Posted By: leon
From my experience I have never seen one be trimmed. I am sure some might have been but this must be a series with almost the least trimming ever, due to their size from the factory. Trimming in the early days was done to fit in folders/sleeves and then, of course, after that to make the corners sharper. I have never seen a sharp corner (except on the "proofs") on a Colgans. Always try to buy from reputable folks and you should be very safe on these..Maybe someone else will have different experiences?..Good luck...they are neat little cards... |

Colgan's - Trimming?
Posted By: Tom Boblitt
and other than some factory stuff where there is a flat edge cutting some of circular side off, I've not seen any issues with trimming. Think it would just be too hard to get a perfect circular type trim and therefore more easy to spot. The biggest problem, due to the paper, is creasing and chipping on the Red Borders on the back. Seems like PSA and SGC give quite a bit of leeway on that chipping because I've seen stuff with 4's and 5's have quite a bit of chipping. |
