apologies to the cartoon.
A while back I showed an All Star Grading 1967 Topps Pete Rose given a 10.
Someone imagined that it was probably trimmed.
Looks like yes. Top left in the scan is the card now out of its holder.
Top right is an ungraded Rose. Looks a little taller than the one I got from Mr. Vitabile.
Other roses in lesser condition also seen.
What am I gonna do with all these Roses...put them in partial set
auctions, place holder cards etc?
Who's trimming the Roses?

1967and 1973 Topps baseball wantlists (any condition) welcome. Once had the #14 ATF 1967 set. Yet another collector like skylaneflyer, gimel1 who made it to the completion of 1967 only to need the money more than the company of 609 close friends.
Looking for oddball Norm Cash and Cleon Jones stuff, and 1956 team cards

Wotta shame! That Rose is stunning, but it sure does look short of top and bottom borders. Sorry that has happened to you.
"All evil needs to triumph is for good men to do nothing."
All Star Grading gave it a 10.
So what's the right thing to do here? Submit to PSA, expect "evidence of trimming" and
then sell it on ebay showing what PSA said, for the person who just needs
to fill spot # 430 in their album?
