Hand cut is a world unto itself, so let's see some hand cut cards people!

Here’s some of my best work:

1968 Topps Posters Cut Out - Mickey Mantle

1937-1941 Wheaties Series 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and Champs of USA - Joe DiMaggio

Thanks; I have yet to take the blade to the unslabbed Joe D’s. Soon enough...

Recently got this one in. Might be my nicest hand cut card.

This is one of my favorite hand cut cards. It was originally issued on packs of Godfrey Phillips Sports Cigarettes in 1949. This is what it looks like on the pack, and after it's been cut from the pack. I own both of these.

I absolutely love these 1986 box bottom cards, especially the Gooden, Brett, and Rose.

oh how i love these elusive baby blue 83 MPs.......my favorite set of all time -- any year, any sport

if you ever decide to relinquish this beauteous 4, i'm your damn huckleberry.......i'll summarily quintuple what you shelled out

tulsaboy · April 24, 2020 8:47AM

I'm floored that anyone can get one of these that isn't either wrinkled or doesn't have some severe wear on the bottom. Seems like all of the 86 boxes I have, including some super fresh examples, have some terribly visible problems. That is an incredible piece! Congrats!

Very nice! Chasing a Willie Woodburn in this set!

Thanks, I'll keep an eye out for the Willie Woodburn.

Some cool hand-cut cards being shown. Here is my contribution.

DBesse27 · April 24, 2020 12:58PM

Love the Milk Duds set, awesome card!

mrmopar · April 24, 2020 7:52PM

Not mine, but have a few of the single smaller cards and the same Bench/Reed box myself.

redlegs · April 25, 2020 4:20AM

Here are a few of the Hostess panels I have cut.

Love the Hostess panels. Those look great!!

I just want to know how you obtained Hostess panels that weren't scratched or bent? That in itself is quite an accomplishment, but then to get it in PSA 10? That is incredible!

RingKing · April 25, 2020 11:02AM

Payton collector here. Love this card more than the regular one from the 1987 set.

The_Departed · April 25, 2020 7:22PM

Very nice job with the hand cuts. What method do you use? I'm currently trying to find my unicorn '62 Mantle Life Mag Ad-back. Sent in two handcut pairs in my last batch to PSA. No dimes, but got Mantle: 2 and 4 and Maris: 4.5 and 8. I've got 4 more pairs sitting in Cali now. Hoping for 10's, I'll see next year when my order finally gets done.

redlegs · April 26, 2020 6:08AM

Thank you. I have always used a swing arm guillotine style of paper cutter. It has always worked well for me. The one I have is very sturdy and has a wooden base.

JoeBanzai · May 6, 2020 5:10AM

Just got something of a "white whale" yesterday, hard to believe a PSA 1 can be so desirable. Only 7 of these cards have achieved a grade above authentic.

Of course I am OCD when it comes to my Killebrew set.

Jello had two different cards in 1962, the cards on the gelatin boxes had lines all the way around (I think it was the gelatin box anyway) and the pudding boxes did not have a vertical line on the left side.

Here's my two examples;

Drooling emoji all over that Clemente...my god man!

I love the sheets and the well done hand cuts - I even have some that are ready to go. I'm also SCARED TO DEATH to try and do any of the cutting. I've looked at having it professionally done, but that seems cost prohibitive in a lot of cases. Any advice from the subject matter experts here?

Let's see some hand cut!
