Sacrilegious...dice games
 
The sheet buyer cut the dice game sheet up
And from the looks of the cards...not done by a professional....borders are all cockeyed and ragged
Unbelievable

Any pics?

I'm completely flabbergasted on how they were cut up. Or hacked up that is. I just don't get it. I would post pics, but am not at liberty to do so.

I guess if they're going to PSA, Authentic = Authentic. So once they're in a slab, they count the same. Obviously eye appeal matters to buyers, but so does the PSA slab.

Does anyone know if Dice Cards were ever issued in packs? Or were they all hand cut? I know some have holes in the top and maybe some kid got them from buying from some special store in Brooklyn, but i could be completely wrong there. I guess someone could have gotten them from cut down sheets and tacked them up. Just curious if we know if they were all hand cut from sheets. Will PSA even grade hand cut cards from a sheet...maybe they would here.

No!
 
Cutting it up makes economic sense but its still a sad thing. If he spent $250,000 plus on the sheet it would be just crazy to cut it by hand instead of having a professional do it right. Looking forward ( sadly) to seeing the results which Im sure will be cringeworthy.....

Does anyone have a link to pics?

Rare uncut sheet:
"Sure, here's a quarter million."

Hiring a professional to cut the sheet into cards:
"Nah, I'm good. Why pay someone when I can do it myself."

Now we just need Paul Harvey to step in and give us "the rest of the story".

Maybe it was Tim Carroll who bought it and chopped it to use in his cut-up cards artwork?? :D:eek::D

Right lol, probably would've cost $500 absolute maximum.
