Slaton is actually fake. I paid very little back around maybe 1980. And the dealer fessed up maybe 5 years later that he had a piece of a sheet he was cutting that was all commons so he decided to make a handful of crazy miscuts.
I think we both got the dollars worth of enjoyment pout of that prank.

That is how most of the wild miscuts you see on eBay happened. I know I have cut up way more than my share of sheets. Why not turn a $10 sheet into a $200-$1000 dollar pile of miscuts? I do sell them as sheet cut but I have seen them resold a lot differently.

Always keep weird miscuts when I get them. Not a fan of the people cutting up sheets to sell fake miscuts they are making themselves, and that cuts a lot of the fun out of buying them off eBay and hunting for them specifically.

Since Broadway Joe has already been posted, these are two of my favorites:
