Boy this is a tough choice, but knowing your interest is mainly sig's you have to go with #2. Much bolder and signed twice.....

Default Paul, I think of you as a signed card autograph collector

Number two is a nicer example of the signature, and while that card has issues, the color is nicer and the front sig is much better. #2.

Default Dump Both of em!

A sig/autograph is the "kiss of death" for me. Might as well have a card with a hole in it or paper loss. If you like autos collect them searate on a ball or indexcard or what ever, to place ink on a card detroys it . But to me an autographed card is ruined. Just MHO. dave

I do love me some beaters. I would go with the second as it has character, strong double signature & more detailed colour.

Both very nice cards!

the first one is obviously in much nicer shape, but the registration looks a little funky. that alone makes me lean towards the 2nd one. keep 'em both, but if its in an auto collection, #2 would be the long-term keeper.

nice cards Paul!

I guess it depends on what's more important to you...in this case the autograph on the card vs the card with the autograph...then I'd keep the 2nd one with a much nicer signature.

Which one do you keep? The answer is yes. Both are great, but if I had to pick one, I like the first one better from the clarity of the sig and overall eye appeal.
