Lately i see a rise in sellers,flippers, e bay autograph specialists buying signed pages at auctions like RR etc and cutting them up to form PSA slabbed cuts one i noticed today pushed me to post this discussion
this one sold at RR as a signed page from a hotel in toronto 1968 signed by Hendrix ,Noel Redding and members of the supporting band on that tour the soft machine it was a nice piece with signatures overlapping slightly as originally signed and with the odd doodle etc am i alone in thinking that this was a historical document that could be tied down to a certain place,tour ,time and moment in history that is now ruined forever by being cut to form a sterile Hendrix signed slab i cannot understand why anyone would do that or even prefer the cut signature to the original piece , the other signatures arent worth much maybe $150 for the Noel and the same for the soft machine so splitting the page isnt a massive $ incentive so i can only think that these guys are offering a service with a demand for cuts
what do other members think do you strongly believe like me that destroying that page and others like it is verging on criminal destruction or just think its a real shame to cut the link with the other signatures or do you prefer the single cut and think it doesnt really matter

Why in the world would anyone cut that great autograph page up???
Seems like the worst offenders are trading card companies who shred documents, bats, jerseys, etc in order to make their own crappy "collectibles."
like the guys who cut up concert worn scarves and sell them in 1" sq framed bits
HI Paul that ones originally from Roger Eppersons shop it was a nice big double page german magazine photo that jimi had signed twice the buyer has cut one signature out of it and ruined the piece
Its like cutting your Woodstock progamme up Roger.
i think i should cut the signature out close as possible and get it slabbed
