J Levine<<I don't believe this card is trimmed. I would not have bid on it if I did. The only ones I bid on that I believe are definitely trimmed are the (3) 1910 American Caramel Set C cards. They are cut very awkwardly. The other cards were not identified as trimmed. Read Will Hays' ad on those cards. He says he'd go "so far to say that every card is altered or colored in some way." Then on the specific card offered, he doesn't mention trimming at all. And the card measures perfectly. If there was an alteration here, it wasn't a trim. I only bid on the ones I felt were untrimmed. Mr. Hays only said that he believed all cards were altered. They may be, but they certainly were not all trimmed. The 1910 American Caramel Set C cards are definitely trimmed. The others measure out correctly. I would've listed them as trimmed if they had not measured correctly upon receipt. Again, this card was not identified as trimmed, only listed among a group of possibly trimmed and altered.>>
Not sure how true this is, but a few of the cards seem trimmed to me.
