Don't think it was anything nefarious. Just a little misguided maybe.

I can't imagine anyone thinking this was meant to deceive, I think he likely really just thought it would make it better aesthetically and failed miserably.
truly, I genuinely like the earned wear of age including a missing chunk here and there occasionally. I have to take the other side and say that the original card was leaps and bounds better looking than a trim...even if done with a paper cutter as some border is certainly better than none.
