Grading expert advice needed

I picked this card up locally for a really good price. The upper left border angles up, so the card is slightly enlarged. The bottom is straight, so I don't think it is truly diamond cut. Will PSA grade this card. If so, do they downgrade for this? Any help is appreciated. If I can't get it graded, I will gladly keep it raw in my collection.

    Appears to be trimmed on both sides (top and bottom in picture.) Take a loupe and look at edges or feel with finger to see if they are smooth...should be rough

    EOT actually crossed my mind. I invested little in this, so I will gladly keep it raw. Thanks guys.

    If you really want them to, your card is eligible to be labeled as "Authentic - Trimmed" by PSA, but I don't see a reason to bother doing so with this particular item.

    someone splain to me why anyone would trim a card to look like that. garden variety Topps miscut. guessing the border with the hook is wider than spec for the card.

    but, it's still Authentic as it were. to call it trimmed is a curse it doesn't need.
