Unfortunately, eBay seller teddyball did not take a photo of the reverse of this 1955 Parkhurst Wrestling Tommy O'Toole card in the PSA 6 holder he sold it in. However, this PSA 8 card is in the same PSA order as another '55 Parkie Wrestling card purchased from teddyball by Gary Moser before he altered it and had it graded by PSA. See Post #437 of this thread for that card. Fortunately, both teddyball (seller of the pre-altered PSA 6) and PWCC (seller of the altered PSA 8) included large images of the obverse of this card. In these images, you can see how Moser trimmed both the right and left edges, which are boxed in red.
On these large images, you will notice two distinct "scratch marks" in the print: One on O'Toole's right eyebrow and the other on his neck (they are marked in green). Neither of these two "scratch marks" (for lack of a better term) appear on any other examples of this card. Thus, I can say without reservation that these are the exact same card. The second image below is smaller and unmarked so viewers can see both cards side-by-side at once to see just how much smaller Moser cut these edges.
