Nice cards and write-up, Tanner. I have to say that yesterday, when I first read this, I assumed it was a George Plimpton style Sidd Finch story. I still remember my Dad handing me the SI story at the dinner table on the Thursday before April 1. After reading the article, I looked up in disbelief and confusion and my parents pointed to the release date on the cover. Congrats

It is funny you mention that - I'm notorious for doing April Fools write ups. Here are some I've done over the years:

Regarding who cut out the Washington there is a very good chance that this was done a hundred and fifty years ago. During that period the document was thought to have little or no value and cuts were done to make them easier to display .
