Vintage Collector Trimmed Article And Thoughts

[steve B]

One of the things that makes it hard is that each set will be slightly different from others.

With trimming, it's mostly a matter of knowing what a factory edge looks like for that particular set. I've come to understand that sort of thing is easier for some people than others. Not a bad/good thing, but almost more of a difference in how their brains work. I'm pretty good with cards and edges, but almost hopeless with autographs even when I'm told what's good or bad about a particular one. I can get the really awfully bad fakes.

What sets are you into? I have a decent assortment of the more available ones and could send scans of the edges. Most were bought a long time ago, and while there was trimming it was usually very poorly done.
I also have examples of a thing or two that look suspect, but aren't.
