    Looks like Mr. Mouse or Mr. Roach had a snack.

    Storm, are you looking at the silhouette of the gold lettering on the top loader?

    Looks good to me. Hard to find centered.

    Ah yes.

    The word after "ROOKIE" is not displaying on my screen.

    But, I can now see that there is another word there. That
    is giving the edge of the card a "nibbled on" look; appears
    as a stamp perf on my screen.

    ......

    Card might be fine, but I think I see why swartz asked. Both
    margins SEEM kinda narrow.

    It looks short to me. I would not risk buying this card.

    thanks for the opinions and the 7...I too thought it was a little short...there are other graded cards at the auction...this is what really makes me hesitant to purchase...will have to see...

    Bring a loupe with you to the auction and take a good close look at the Ryan if you can. That's probably the only way to know for sure.

    If it's factory-cut that way, it could still grade. Not every card was cut to a perfect 3.5"x2.5" back then.

    If you come across any FF on packs or rare/unique FF items, I'm interested.
