Yowza! Whoever made the decision to do that should not be a position to decide to do that. For some reason, I would have found it slightly less reprehensible if they had separated the "Theodore" and the "Williams" and made two separate cut cards. The "dore Williams" just seems like a middle finger to anybody that collects autographs. What's next? Maybe take a Babe Ruth signature and cut it into 8 pieces and make 8 insert cards?

It's worse than just ruining a cut--they did this to a full cancelled check. Ridiculous. This is what happens when non-hobby people are brought in to work in the industry.

Not 'almost'.

But do you really expect better?

Careful, don't give Topps any ideas.

I don’t think it’s Topps, but someone cut a Ty Cobb letter and made cards with each word of the letter…

I guess my opinion is different. While I wouldn't have done that, nor have any interest in the card, and think it's stupid, Williams checks are not that rare. There's several on eBay right now. Anyone that wants one wouldn't have any problem finding one. Hey, if some moron wants to spend $1K+ on a "dore Williams" cut, let them.
