Maybe a Screen Stars / FOTL combo tag? See attached.

Bootleg tags were often cut.

The question is - is an old bootleg, or some new creation - where they cut the tag because it would be identifiable as fake - that would serve a dual purpose since bootleg tags were cut back then too...

Anyone have insight?

Thanks for that info jimmy, I never knew that was a common thing to cut the tags. It is single stitched , would it be common for fakes to mimic single stitch ? Google lens not showing any other versions of this anywhere

There are fake versions of that SS tag - and yes, they are single-stitched.
