Default Shoeless Joe Cards

I'm putting together a PC, like many others probably, of HoFers. For HoFers who played in the Pre-War era, I'm doing any of their playing-days cards. For Post-War HoFers (up until 1979), I'm doing their last card. Then for 1980+, the HoFer's RCs.

This brings up a challenging dilemma when it comes to some of the bigger names for Pre-War, because their cards get pricey. Cobb and Honus have surprisingly "affordable" cards (the " " mean I need to save a bit), but Shoeless Joe's cards seem to be unobtainable for my income. I'm considering the 1913 T200 Fatima Cleveland Indians team card (I'm a diehard Tribe fan; BEAT BOSTON), and think I can "cheat" that to count as a Shoeless Joe card.

What are your thoughts? Are there other Shoeless Joe Cards, aside from the Cracker Jack, that is/are affordable (kind of like the 1932 Sanella Ruth)?

Let me know your input, please and thank you!
