Default Cut from a sheet -Is that ok?

Posted By: JimB

With all the talk about the Gretzky Wagner possibly being cut from a sheet (still no conclusive evidence of this - only rumors) - perhaps in the 1980's, it raises an interesting question: So what if it was? If it is an original period sheet, the card would have to have been cut sometime. Does it matter if it was cut in 1909 or 1979? A few years back, SGC graded a bunch of T204s from a sheet Nagy cut up in the 1970's. These were very high grade cards and were sold in a Mastro auction. I don't want to encourage people to cut up uncut sheets because I think they are important historical records, but philosophically speaking, is there a problem? I am curious to hear what you all think.
