Walter Alston or Vin Scully?

I am currently working on a signed 1957 set, I have around 77% of the set autographed. While I am trying to add new cards, I am also looking to upgrade others. One of the cards that I am wanting to upgrade is my Dodgers team card. I am debating if I want to get one that is signed by Walter Alston (deceased 1984) or get Vin Scully to sign one.

Both have their positives and negatives.

Alston is a Hall of Famer in the true sense and was the manager of the team but overall not a signature that is in high demand.

Scully's signature is more in demand but he wasn't an on-field person. I know that people don't treat Ford Frick winners in the same category as regular Hall of Famers but then again Scully is held in a different category than most other broaadcasters.

Opinions on what direction I should go with.
