This always causes a back and forth when the cuts are brought up, but I am in the same boat as Tony on them.

I personally think they turn something that was collectible (IE a Reach or Spalding guide) into junk.

This is one of those sellers looking at his listings that just cuts up vintage guides and sells the snips. If it makes for a neat display, I can see it pleasing folks but the prices some people pay for things that are intrinsically worthless makes me think these sellers are snowing folks into thinking these are real cards which I find very deceitful. Especially when it's a seller that puts them in a screw-down with a sticker labeling it with some description and grade.

Please collect what you want, this is just my opinion. I just would warn folks that these items do very much fall into the "it's worth the personal value to you, not a real value" category so pay accordingly.
