Cut up a card and stick it in a "custom" frame.Wow...that is LAME!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
wow. They keep out doing themselfs. I was looking at this today. You would think someone would cut around the auto rather than through it?

gee, I think I will create my own card company and label, and use some of the old Braves Payroll checks (canceled of course) as the sigs...I could make probably 50-1/1's....BIG THUMBS DOWN
 
By legit, you mean not a computer image but a real card-like object you can hold in your hand?

Notice that there is no copyright, date or anything making this feel like a "real" card. It appears to be a custom cut project by a collector. That is fine and you should even be able to sell them as such, but it's meant to trick you into thinking it is a legit card issue, even though they do say it can't be found in packs.

You might as well sell the actual card instead of cutting it apart! 1/1? Yes, we would not want another card destroyed, even Len Gabrielson, to make another ugly cut.
 
Do you think that I could do any thing with this?? You probably won't see
a Stargell and Clemente like it anywhere. A real 1/1. Between the Walker
auto and the ad paragraph. Butch

I would almost consider erasing (if it's pencil, looks like it might be) the Stargell and Walker autos to have a larger, cleaner Clemente. Both of those guys are easy autos, even after their deaths.

I had something similar, a mid 60s Senators program, that was signed oddly (weird angles, upside down, etc) by a bunch of the team. Most of the players were ho-hum, but Gil Hodges was on there, so I just cut him off the program. I never regretted cutting it up, because the whole piece together wasn't anything more than a nice Hodges signature anyway.

I am not a big fan of random autos on items with text (program covers, ads, etc). Now if they signed their picture in a yearbook or something like that, then it's a different story. Very nice piece though. Clemente is a gem of an auto to have.
