No idea what to do with this. All one piece with perforated lines by the cards. Suggestions?

Bosox1976

Turn them in to one of these:

Very nice. That's a true collectible.

Or you can look for the April 13, 1962 Cleopatra Taylor/ Burton Life Magazine without the cards and slip it back in

I think you should keep as is. Very nice item!

I was lucky to pick up one of these Life issues at an antique show for about $7. My wife bought me the other off eBay a little while before that. It's a nice display and conversation piece!

I also bought one of these about 3 weeks ago. It looks as if mine is in similar condition as yours, the left edge of the MM has some problems. If you search eBay you will see some of these that have been cut, just outside the black boarder. You will also see some like Bosox1976, separated by the perforation.
I'm also trying to decide what to do with mine.
Here are mine:

Yeah thats where mine is a little sketchy. I actually found mine in a desk left at a home I bought. Cool piece either way.

That was a good find!!

Thanks for the idea Mike-now my wife has something to actually look for at those shows/stores.

Would it have more value in its current form, or would it have more value if it was torn away at the perforation and graded PSA 8 or 9?

I have one of these still in the magazine. How do you all display yours without messing up the magazine? I'd love to have the Mantle visible without taking the magazine in and out of the bag.

Great question. I have some '35 Goudey 4 in 1's that are in odd form also. Not gradable as is but no definitive value the way they are.

Whenever I see any stack of Life mags at stores or shows I look for this issue. You never know!

Usually when a place has hundreds of issues available they'll sort them by year. That makes it real easy to check for this one.
