Trimmed? Gradeable?

[Archive]

Posted By: Joe Drouillard

Hello Everyone,

I picked up this T206 McGraw on ebay the other day. It's my first T206 HOFer that I have bought ungraded. The dimensions are the standard 1-7/16 x 2-5/8. There are no creases or paper loss. I don't think it has been trimmed, although it looks a little tight from the player's name to the bottom of the card, but I would appreciate a second opinion before jumping into the market again.

I paid $90.00 for it and I don't plan to sell it soon. But I might consider having it graded to protect it if it will grade VG-EX or EX.

Again, I would appreciate opinions and advice.

Best wishes,

Joe

I remember bidding on this card. I stopped trying to win it because of the bottom edge if this is the card I'm thinking of. That bottom edge was just a little too slanted for my liking. If this is the card, I thought it looked a bit trimmed, even though it is standard size. Please post better scans so I can determine if this is the exact card.

Edited to add: the bottom left edge is slightly shorter than the lower right edge, right? I'm not saying it is definitely trimmed, but I strayed away from it because I suspected it.
