Lionel Carter was obsessed with condition. Not sure about Burdick.

Burdick most likely would rather fill a hole than worry too much about condition.
Before cards were valuable I don't think old timers worried much about trimming or alterations. It was all about the card and filling the void..

it was also common to trim tobacco ads off the bottoms or tops of cards before giving them to the kiddies to play. Hence my N332 SF Hess Charlie Mitchell (HOF) card:
