The cards from the early 50's were cut with a virbating wire ( like a jig saw ). When the wire began to get loose or worn, the cut was/became rough. I can't speak for later years, perhaps Topps was still using the same equipment in the early 70's. From what I have read, a rough cut does not effect the grade of the card since a rough cut is not out of the norm and at times expected for the issued cards.

Yes, thats true..in the early days Topps factory did you a "jig saw" type blade to seperate the cards. It was very similar to a " wig saw" blade that they use to cut and shape mens hair pieces
