With a $2,000 budget for a playing era Shoeless Joe, you are looking at one of the game cards (Tom Barker, National Game, Polo Grounds) or the W514 strip card. Since the OP mentioned not wanting a strip card (and they are mostly hideous), it seems like the only real option in that price range is one of the game cards.

A really nice B18 blanket can be fetched for half your budget. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I prefer it to the strips and game cards.

I think based on what you have sad the only choices are the game cards and the M101 like everyone has already stated. It is pretty hard to find any Jackson card under $2,000 even the playball sell for good money. Based on your budget go for a game card or raise a bit more and you can likely get an m101 in the 3K range in good or so.

Obviously the E90 and Cracker Jack are viewed as his major cards but I think the buy in price is at least 6K for either card at this point.

Good luck and let us know what you get.

Really nice, relatively inexpensive Jackson cards are the 1913 National Game/Tom Barker cards (same image for either). In my opinion it is one of his more attractive cards, with a real pleasing posed black and white photo, and a card that should be around half of your budget amount (more dough to buy other cards...always my mantra).

Pretty sure someone had a real nice T Barker or Nat Game card on the B/S/T about 4 to 6 weeks back for around 1200 or so. Think it might have been a SGC graded card in very nice shape and a beautiful image of Joe. Found it, Nat Game SGC 84 for sale on 3/08 by Square5000. Nice card and well in your budget bro. Good Luck from another Jax/black sox fan.

2k can maybe purchase a corner of an e90-1. A dinged corner at that

I think the Playball or the strip are nice choices within reach of the stated budget.

Great choice getting a card of Shoeless. I am a huge fan of his cards, his feats on the field, and fascinated by his story. He is a true icon in the sport and hobby

Thanks for the advice guys. Looks like I may have to raise the budget.

What would a similar m101 to this run in a nice 1 or 2? (just a ballpark)
