How many T206 PSA 7's and 8's have borders this large?

Think about this - why don't you see many high grade jumbo cards?

1 - Most jumbos are not high grade because they are a true representation of a cards condition that has not been trimmed.

2 - Many jumbo cards have been trimmed down to get that higher grade and the TPGs just do a poor job of catching trimmed cards.

I was surprised this only got a 5, has nice full borders! (Actually, should qualify that, with the tougher grading now, it’s a perfectly fine grade for the card). Doesnt matter anyway, i was excited to have the card with the expansive borders.

Like Phil, I like em' wide, or tall, and centered.

Great Matty Paul. Love it!

But obviously off-centered, thus the justifiable downgrade.

Brian (nice card by the way)

You know, somewhere theres a so called professional card trimmer, thats having uncontrollable urges, just scrolling through this post. Looking at all the potential PSA 8's.

Nah. Those aren’t the fat boarders from the 70’s. Sorry, only the Johnson may qualify.

3- Jumbo cards stick out of a stack of normal sized cards and get worn more.
