Actually, the T205 Joss is "career contemporary". The set was issued in 1911, and Joss' final year in the majors was 1910. Even PSA considers cards issued the year after the player's final year, to be "career contemporary".

To not consider the T205 Joss "career contemporary", would be like considering the 1973 Topps Roberto Clemente to be the same, since Clemente died Dec 31, 1972.
