No, I would not have trimmed it.

Just to expand on my comment, the date was part of the history and context of the item.  

Also, by trimming away the top section it would be far more difficult to neatly frame the item now.  

I am generally against any cutting of autographs, not because it's necessarily always the wrong thing to do, but because many people who cut or trim end up seriously damaging the item in one way or another.

I might have trimmed it but would not have squared it off as that line is too close to Ringo’s signature.

I wouldn’t have trimmed it. If I thought that it would look better trimmed, I wouldn’t have done it like that.
