Who Won this rare Cap Anson?

It was cut from a Goodwin round album page. I would pass at half that price.

Pretty worthless trimmed piece from, as Matt said, the round album.

Apparently its not worthless based on the auction result.

Is a "card" like this slabable?

Actually, guys, according to the auction page....

In comparing images of the album and poster it becomes obvious that this image has been carefully cut from an original G76 Banner and not an A35 album as there are slight differences in the images on both.

If they are correct, it was cut from the super rare G76 banner or poster, an example of which sold for over $100K in REA.

I see where the circle below cap was cut out, it seems like it is from a poster. Its cooler then a round album page but still a pass from me. I don't think you missed out too bad.

It's funny because on one hand, the fact that it is cut out from the banner (rather than the album) makes it a piece or a fraction of a very valuable item (while the album is not cheap, the poster is a $100K item).

On the other hand, the fact that it's cut from the poster make it all the more tragic that an incredibly rare G76 poster was destroyed by a previous owner.

The Capt. Anson Chicagos is moved. If it was from the Album then it would have showed up in the cut under the leaves and bow. The banner has it more to the side where it would be cut off.
