Default Harper's weekly. Full issues or just the woodcuts?

I've picked up a few of the Harper's Weekly baseball woodcuts, well, actually so far, I've only been picking up the full issues. Now, I've run into something I'm not sure of. I've got an opportunity to pick one of the harder to find ones for a decent price, the only problem is that it's not the full issue. I'm not dead set on full issues only for my collection, but I'm not sure of the values either. Is it the full issues that are really worth it, or is it simply the woodcuts alone with the complete issue just being an added bonus?

I'm thinking about sticking to the full issues, but maybe in certain cases, allowing myself to purchase single woodcuts as filler, until a full issue becomes available to me. Any thoughts? And what approach have some of you other collectors taken with the Harpers woodcuts?
