I'd prefer to own the Aaron, but I'll vote for the Clark as the better design.

FCB Tournament 4 - Bracket 1 Finalist open until 7/7 at 11PM ET Custom Tournament

I'll go Aaron as well. By this round I'm now docking The Thrill because, while the design is gorgeous and the foil effect awesome, the design itself is not original. It's an homage. Beautiful yes. Would I love a Dale Sveum? Yes. But it is not original and I deducted points for it

I'll go with the Aaron card only because of Aaron's Legendary status plus early autograph.
I like the Clark card, but the back of the card just kills it over all for me (not the custom creators fault). We haven't seen the back of the Aaron card so it remains a mystery.

Looooooosiana!
I enjoy the quirkiness of the Breslove. "No Major League Experience Yet" made me laugh. But I have to go with the Slaughter. Great design. Autograph. Managed to fit the entire cut into the window without it looking chopped up. Great card.

Scott! Why have you not signed this yet?! :) You should sign on a penny sleeve if you don't want to mess anything up.

Lol!
Ok guys, I had this card made when I started trying to collect an autograph from every Mets player ever and I thought, who wouldn't want to include themselves in that?! All the stats on the back are mine, birthday, born and resides, etc. my favorite number is 17, hence the card number...

Oh and it was made by our own, the legendary [MENTION=7453]mouschi[/MENTION]! Double awesome!! It was unsigned cuz I didn't know what color I wanted and was afraid of the permanence of it...but sign the pennysleeve?! Duh why didn't I think of that!
Here it is in all of its glory and crappy sig!

The Slaughter looks fantastic all-around - it gets my vote for this matchup.

However, very cool personal card, [MENTION=4428]MrMet[/MENTION] - this is like taking the create-a-player from MLB video games to the next level.

While I stand by my vote, this is awesome. I created a rookie card of my son, but maybe I need to add my own signature to my Astros collection! If they do another iteration of this contest, I'll submit the card of my son.

The Slaughter gets my vote. Well-done all around: the action photo; the auto; the play-by-play quote on the back; etc. I always thought GC's avatar was of a Donruss Classics card or something like that.

I was going to vote for the Slaughter because it's a nicely executed card, but then I caught the grammatical error on it and that drives me crazy, because it's the only thing I see on the card from there on out. So I'll cast my vote for mrmet.
