Hi,
There is nothing wrong with slabbing a woodcut or a portion of the paper(if one wants to collect that). However, if it is only a portion of the paper, then the value of it takes a big hit. Take this John L Sullivan Woodcut from the Police Gazette. It is his first championship victory, and it is a double page centerfold. As part of the complete paper it is much more valuable. If I were to sell just the double page centerfold(or slab it), it would still have value, but not nearly as much as the entire paper. If I were to cut one of the individual photos out of this, then I basically just destroyed all the value. I hate to see anything cut up. Even worse if people are being dishonest about it!
