Does anyone like badly miscut cards?

[Rich Klein]

When we used to see Matt Charlton here in DFW he loved those cards. I love them because they are interesting and if he ever comes back up, I've got a load of these for you Matt. But to me, anything like this has to be rarer than a basic card and in fields such as Coins or Stamps misprints like that they have significant value. Maybe not to "our generation" but I suspect fairly soon there will be a real market for those cards.

John, no story I know of, I got it just like you see it. I hope nobody purposely cut them apart, I suspect they were just scraps someone kept after cutting, but I don’t know.

Matt is a great guy, done a couple trades with him that involved rare error cards.

I have been collecting errors of all kinds since the 80's. The prices fluctuate a lot. Sometimes they bring a lot of cash and sometimes you can't give them away.

I also think severely miscut cards are pretty cool. If you've got a batch of Philadelphia Phillies and/or Flyers, at a slight premium, let me know.

I don't collect miscuts, but I do like to see them. They can help identify what card was next to another, which is useful when attempting to determine the print patterns that Topps may have used. If anyone has high number miscuts for 1961 to 1968, please post pix!!!

Exactly. I never cared for miscuts, wrong backs, or blank backs, but for the past week I have been looking for scans of late series 1963 Topps miscuts for information on trying to reconstruct the rows of cards on the original sheets. ETA: that's Mike de la Hoz beside the Stargell rookie.
