Not sure who else in the book would be worth cutting.
The Ruth authenticated and encapsulated is probably worth $7500 or possibly more in a major auction as the "Sincerely" adds value and it is clean.
Young is a nice signature but the stain on the Cy will hurt it. Probably still $1500 or possibly more depending on how the cut comes out.
The Cobb is probably $1500 or so as well.
So, IMO, the 3 would be worth somewhere around $10K as long as they are authenticated and encapsulated.
I would probably also grade all 3 and the grades could make them even better.
Obviously, just one man's opinion.

Don't cut them, if anything remove them at the seams of the book to keep the page intact. A signed album page holds better value than a cut, plain and simple.
