I am going to submit some vintage to PSA through a friend. Haven't ever submitted to them before and not sure what to expect. It's all PC stuff, nothing too valuable. I purchased the below '50 Bowman Teddy maybe 18 months ago originally on eBay, but then it failed eBay authentication presumably because it is short top top bottom. I believed it to be authentic (still do) so I reached out to the seller and bought it privately because I liked the eye appeal and was confident in its authenticity. I don't believe it to be trimmed either. It's just factory short IMO. Feel free to tell I'm wrong on either/both accounts, no offense taken...anyways, my question is will PSA slab it as Authentic or will they hit it with a Min Size Req and refuse to slab it? Appreciate thoughts from "the experts." Not really a big deal, but given that it's a pretty iconic card I wouldn't mind having it slabbed if I was confident they will do it. Thank you....and no I'm not sending the Johnny Pesky to PSA.

With SGC, I put a note right in the card holder 'instructing' them to only grade my (miscut Bench RC) card as 'Authentic.' I also marked it as such on the submission form.
I have no connection to this guy, but found his short video basically describing the exact same thing for PSA, so give it a look (and try not to yawn as he goes on about Pokemon cards): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOrdGLq_1T0

Yes, include the note "SLAB AS AUTHENTIC IF IT FAILS TO EARN A NUMBER GRADE" and PSA will slab it.
