Anyone handcut cards that have a curved corner?

If you look at the Hogan's I put up images of, there is a curve on the corners like a credit card. Does anyone have an example of a handcut item with curved corners? I have done a pretty good job trimming square items, but this is new to me and just wonder if there are any examples of curved corner handcuts that anyone can mention to me and perhaps show me an image. I would be horrified to send in a handcut card with curved corners only to learn that it was acceptable for cards to be completely square.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

    I saw those too as the only examples of handcut with curved corners, but I did not know much about the origin of the issue. I am hoping that PSA just didn't label them handcut, when they weren't.........

    PSA does slab those 52 Wheaties with square corners (there are several on eBay right now). I don't know if the solid outline over the complete corner makes a difference in this case or not.

    I really appreciate you sending this to me. I have found square corners graded too so both look like options, but I think the route to go is to cut the round corners here.

    Hi tkd, I've have a Phil rizzuto that I believe was in that set too. I never knew what it was but looks like the three you have here. I've had it forever. It is about half the size of a normal card. Are there any value to these singles?

    1952 Wheaties cards are very collectible but not very valuable. Depending on the player maybe $5 to $20 unless you have mint examples.

    I'm surprised these got a numerical grade w/o any of the blue border showing (unless I just can't see due to the small pic), though they do look full size just inside the border. I thought that was a requirement on handcuts to get more than an Auth grade, like the border/dashes on W512/Hostess/Bazooka/etc.?
