Hmm, that is a good question and I really dont know how to answer it. People bidding probably didnt read the description. Smart way of him to do it, put it in the last line of the description so when someone asks he covers his A by saying "its in the description, u shouldve read it better"
A trimmed card should be clearly stated right away in the description, but hey i guess im too honest lol

The answer is:
THE CARD IS SHORTER VERTICALLY BY 1/32 OF AN INCH...
A altered card is normally worth nothing to vintage collector. It clear the top and bottom was trim and the seller did not put this sentence for nothing. He want to cover is back knowing the card was altered otherwise he would never have written this. I would not sell such card, I would either keep it in PC as is or destroy it, but never resell such card.

Also look at the top left back corner: He miss it to keep going straight, more evidence it was trimmed.

the horizontal sides are rough, and indicative of the wire cutting process from that era. No way they cut the top and bottom so flawlessly and then so rugged on the sides.
