I think that's the way to go.

For me it would really depend on the book and signature and condition.
A modern book that's readily available from a signing? Cut away.
A totally mangled copy of a book that happens to be signed, maybe with a nice signature? Probably also one to cut.

Older stuff that's still nice I think the combination is better than the individual bits.

It will make for a bit of challenging framing, but will probably be well worth the effort.
