There have been sellers of this type of item in the past (and maybe still are out there) that are purposefully deceptive. I don't think it was him, but one I saw was selling pages from sports periodicals as poster/inserts and if you are not familiar or can't tell from the photo, that is crappy. I personally believe that if you are selling something that was cut from a book or magazine, that this fact needs to be stated clearly, along with the original source of where the item came from.

I have an interest in newspaper "cards", but I prefer they be formatted to at least look like they might have been meant for clipping and saving. This guy does stretch the boundaries of a card at times, but would agree that as long as the description is clear and not deceptive, then he is just taking advantage of a collector need.
