Which card would you rather have?

I'm more curious than anything about how the general collecting public views these cards. If you had a choice between one of these two cards which would you rather? (No, the Canseco is not mine, lol.)
To state the obvious:
Pujols: Quad Patch, Licensed, #/5, includes laundry tag
Canseco: Quad Patch, Unlicensed, 1/1, includes better laundry tag and autograph

I'm not a fan of either design, both have too much dead area. I guess the Canseco is slightly better with a better pic and in color.
I’d rather have the Pujols and it’s not close.

Neither...........sorry.
Canseco
Canseco for Sure
Not a fan of either, but to answer your question, Pujols. And I was a fan of Canseco.
It's all about the License for me.
Canseco by a mile.
Pujols Pros: Licensed and HOF
Canseco Pros: 1/1 and Auto
But I too would select neither...but if I had to choose I’d take the auto.
I'll take Jose.
The Pujols looks too much like a mug shot.
The Canseco.
I don't care that one is licensed vs the other unlicensed.
It's all about the Canseco being color with a much better photo.
Both are pretty poor designs, IMHO, however.
I'd go with the Canseco. I'd rather have an autographed card than a jersey-swatch thingy.
I like the magtite on the left cos it's cleaner looking.
I don't care for relic cards. Will pass on both
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
Panini baseball just never ceases to amaze me. What team do you play for on that card Jose? LOL. If I'm going to pay $2,500 + shipping for a card, it better have the Oakland A's logo on his helmet and jersey.
I agree on the not a fan of relic cards... but if I had to choose, then it’s Albert all day everyday! Arguably one of the best players of all time!
Pujols by a mile. Don't care for "air brushed out" pics because of no MLB logo and Canseco auto's can be obtained easily.
I don’t get the appeal of either card - small little pieces of fabric placed into a poor card design - but can’t stand cards that have team logos airbrushed out. So I guess Pujols but the design on that card is a mess.
The Canseco is the better looking card to me. The Pujols may as well be jersey patches taped to a 3x5 card. It has so much blank space and really is ugly.
Canseco. I would much rather have an auto, even without the jersey, than a multi-jersey swatch card.
