If my memory serves me correctly, I think that someone else (Alan Hagar?) wanted to buy the sheet with intentions to cut it up and ran an ad offering the cards on an individual basis right after the auction closed. Luckily, he did not purchase the sheet at auction or immediately afterwards and it was, therefore, never cut up.
The sheet was most recently sold in 2016 by SCP.

I think cutting up something like this should be frowned upon. I'm actually horrified that someone would want to do this! What's wrong with a company making copies of these cards and writing a nice bio on the back instead?
