Trimmed (?) 1978 Amada Andre The Giant card

Pretty sure this card has been trimmed. Can anyone confirm?

    I think it looks okay. This was one I used to have that wasn't trimmed

    I believe the person who posted this on another message board is on this one as well. Scroll down to see a version of this card

    There are two versions of this card.....one oversized that would be in a tallboy holder and another mini card.......that is why you may be confused. This is the large bromide version and it looks good to me too. I have a few in my collection. Great card.

    Yes, this is the bromide version. I don't see any issues with it comparing it to others.

    The seller has listed a ton of these over the past year. The card has turned into a dud. You might consider contacting him to buy one so you aren't bidding against anyone.



    I would also think you might be able to save on shipping that way too.

    How come no cards from this set have been graded by PSA?

    I think I recall Chad trying and PSA said no.



    They have been known to change their mind so perhaps they will now.
