Previous owner said it is 315 and I'm inclined to agree, but is it too narrow to trust? Looking for opinions.

It has to measure at least 21.5 x 25 mm to be certifiable.

This is clearly a trimmed perforated stamp.

304.
Your stamp superimposed on a 304. The left/right margins of your stamp are entirely within the perforations of the 304. Perfs were cut off.

Plus on other tell is the top edge does not look straight implying a trim job.

The edges don't have to be straight. These were cut apart in the wild. What matters is the margin size.

I got this pair a few years back ...
The couple I got it from said they would pass the time driving across the map to visit stamp shows. They were either driving from San Fran to a show in San Diego or San Diego to a show in San Fran, where they found and purchased it.
Any thoughts ?

How the margins were cut does matter. Trimmed perf stamps are often cut a little bit at a time, and that leaves an uneven edge which is unmistakable. I have seen hundreds on both postage and revenue stamps.
