portait is very cool w/auto but if you are a card guy i think the "whole" card has to be the keeper. if it's auto's you collect then keep the portrait,as it seems to be fountain pen.

Personally i'd keep both as they are different cards in the t-206 and each have their own unique characteristics.

James,

My opinion would be to keep the portrait. The card is basically intact and the sig presents very well.

The portrait is the one that jumps out to me.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.

Their both equally cool, but I prefer the hands at side card.

The paper loss on the portrait is distracting. I prefer the other pose. If you plan on selling it, LMK.

Thanks for the imput guys! I guess if I were to trade or sell either, I would have to get another pre-war HOF autograph or HOF type card to replace it. It looks like a split decision!

(Oh, and, I'm partial to the portrait with the "rat chews" as I used to call 'em...)

Mouse nibblings distract me. I'd keep the hands at side.

tuff one...

obviously the portrait is in worse shape, BUT the auto is stronger on it...

i guess the important element is the auto, so i would keep the portrait for that reason.

(can't ya keep 'em both?)...sell something else instead...
