I agree for the most part (not that it really matters)

Since we have almost never seen sheets or strips of W575-1, I will continue to believe they were not hand cut when distributed, until I see any other evidence.

It's a great conversation. It's always ok to agree to disagree too.

Once again, I am not negating the fact that these cards were issued in this format, just indicating my belief that some of the cards that have been traditionally lumped into the W575-1 classification (including the W501-2 that Rhett was the first to identify) were not offered as individual cards.

Just as it is incorrect for the grading companies to automatically identify all 'W575-1' cards as hand cut, in my opinion it is also incorrect to classify all cards that have traditionally been classified as W575-1 to be machine cut.
