Also, as we know there was a wide range of sizes that came out of the factory, due to the way they were cut. So I think it's legit, and would be my choice over the 4...And, FWIW, over the years, I've noticed that many Red Cobbs tend to often look a little shorter than other cards (not trimmed, but "factory short"), but they rarely have large borders like some other T206 cards. Maybe because there's so many of them, we see such a wide range of sizes, not sure.
I agree with you Michael and it doesn't look that short maybe a 1/16 shorter than the average T206.
