trimmed cards

I don't mind trimmed cards...to each their own. At the moment, I own one trimmed card (T206 Mathewson Dark Cap) and I don't even notice the trim job on it. The card looks to be a tad short, so to me it looks beautiful and untrimmed. Like a few people have said already, this is a card that if unaltered, I would not be able to afford. So I welcome trimmed cards if they are usually expensive unaltered.

As for the "chop jobs", they look horrible and wouldn't touch them unless they were too cheap to pass up. The gentlemen that showed us a few...the orange Mathewson looks very bad (no offense), but I can hardly look at that card!

Mike
