Question about T206s in Memory Lane

[CardMD]

Here is another example. How short is considered normal variation? Screams trimmed to me.

Are Old Mills known to have narrow bottom borders? I have an Eddie Collins in a PSA 4 holder that seems the same way. It doesn't appear to be trimmed, but the bottom border seems a thin.

Yeah, there are a lot of Old Mills that are factory-cut shorter than normal. Cobb looks good to me.

IDK, Id want to take a closer look at that left border...

They must have thought it was short too because they are using the oldest trick in the book by having the card sit up against the upper lip of the holder before photgraphing.

Interesting... So beware of t206 cards with scans where it's leaning on the top piece (assuming there is room between card bottom and bottom piece)? Great tip. Man I love this site.

I think you guys are trying too hard to see something wrong with this card. It's more like a 4 or 4.5 than a 6, but other than that it's a nice card. I have a bunch of factory-cut short Old Mills like this.

So, I was just outbid on this Matty CB PSA 3 at ML: http://memorylaneinc.com/site/bids/b...e?itemid=43088

My question is how can they say it's 1 of 1 and highest PSA example when the pop reports show two PSA 3s and one PSA 4.5 (not to mention there is an SGC 3 out there)?

They seem to have corrected the listing online.

Hey Ryan, don't you have better things to do with your money?
