totally lame design...and if they did in fact destroy a t201 for this ugly piece...a real travesty.

Anything that highlights Eddie Collins' crotch is A-Ok in my book.

I agree completely. I hope they didn't ruin a signed vintage card to create this.

Holy crap that is one ugly piece of garbage.
This looks like a ticket stub to a regional semi-pro wrestling tournament circa 1992 except maybe not as tastefully designed. Nice though the original card would have been, its worthless now.

Since what is left of the card is below the fold, I wonder if this thing may have separated into 2 pieces decades ago, and this is about all they could do with a nice autograph on a headless Collins card,.

In the world we actually live in where they buzz-saw Babe Ruth game used bats to create a sufficient supply of sawdust to put into cards....the life expectancy of autographed T201s is probably similar to that of fighter pilots on the Western Front in WW1. Even if they did just have the lower half I suspect they'd go out, buy a perfectly good Collins/Baker and cut it in half just for spite.
