I am 100% the card is not trimmed. I am thinking this happened during the cut process. It wasn't a smooth separation and the top edge is the result. This card was in the same find as your Breienstein. I passed on the Breit-one of my many mistakes in this hobby-you can't own them all.

Jim - I concur... The card I own with similar wavyness is in the same spot (Top right) and it is the Perdue card. By the way, that Breit sat for a handful of days as I originally didn't want to pay too much for it. Now that I look back a few years, I should have paid asking price and then some... At that time Type 1's were pretty inexpensive, and in my opinion, they continue to be a relative bargain for their scarcity.

Never tried to get the McElveen graded but the A grade on the Perdue is just a lack of knowledge-that card is not altered. These seem to have been torn just a bit during separation. I would guess SGC is thinking better safe than sorry.
No one trims a card like that -even a novice trimmer would make a cut that was not wavy. there are not lots of type 1s to compare but I have seen several with the same wavy top edge-none I have seen appear altered. So my thinking is it happened at the time they were cut into individual cards.
