It depends how you define a card. If you define it as being cardboard, part of a set, and only featuring that one person--definitely no. The first cards fitting that definition didn't appear until 1886 with N167s and Tomlinson cabinets. As you expand the definition of a card more HOFers get included. Actually, you might include the 1863 Grand Match tickets as fitting the first definition.
