Trimmed?

BruceinGa · #1 04-29-2015, 11:07 AM

I just bought a T212(175) and from vcp I see that the card size should be 1 1/2 x 2 5/8. How accurately were these cut? The reason I'm asking is mine is 1 7/16 x 2 5/8. What are the chances it has been trimmed? How strict is SGC and PSA on the dimensions?
Thanks for the help!

a scan is necessary to tell...there is likely an acceptable tolerance/variance with sizes of most vintage cards.

That's what I was thinking, the top left corner doesn't look anything like the top right.
Thanks for your opinion.

I was just looking in "Standard Catalog of Vintage Baseball Cards" and in their description it states "Obaks are the standard tobacco card size, about 1 1/2 x 2 5/8.
