I would not consider it a must have and honestly am not a big fan as the likeness is not that recognizable to the layman.
I would prefer a less common period card with a good likeness.
As for the card show angle, you would be very unlikely to find a lower price than an ebay auction. The more likely situation would be a highly overpriced example looking for a rookie to unknowingly pay more for a ruth example. An ebay auction is your best bet.
