Here are my thoughts on the two:

DiMaggio - I cannot tell if it is because of the scan, but it seems like the pictures are not entirely clear. It is hard to say without having it in hand. I guess in a way, it does go with the theme of an old-time player to have the tattered look, so that is cool! The autograph is clean, and it is authenticated, so that is neat also.

Steinbrenner - I think the design is crisp and like the information that is on it as well. I'm not too big a fan of stadium seat cards, (whenever I see one, I always hope it is a game used bat and am let down when I find out otherwise) but since Steinbrenner never played and it is a custom, I think it works well.

It is close for me, but I'm going Boss. Great job to both the people that created these - they look nice!

I didn't make it but I'm going with the card I own. Here are the pieces it's made from in case anyone is curious.





I felt like stadium seats would be best since Steinbrenner wasn't swinging the bat.

Thanks for posting! I love seeing where the pieces came from.

The Boss. Even though 100% of non-Yankee fans hated him, that card is beyond epic.

As always I'm a day late and dollar short! Fantasic idea for a custom card showoff.

Going with Tanner's Joe D, but incredible job by all.

If self votes count I'm going with the Boss. Tough card to run up against in the second round though.
