I'm almost POSITIVE this card features Shoeless Joe...

No - there is an Austin/Stovall with a Cobb mid-panel. He is identified on the back of the panel though as the card is titled "Ty Cobb Steals Third." Even so, I don't think that one sells for nearly what the ones with him on the end-panel do, despite it having the iconic Cobb center panel image. A closer parallel would be the "A Great Batsman" card which has Lajoie in the center, but not on the sides. According to the SCD that one carries no premium over a common even though Lajoie is IDed by name on the back.

Re the shortstop issue, I think Tannehill, who threw Jax out, may well have been playing second as was previously suggested, and that despite also being listed at second, Zeider may have been at shortstop and not involved in the play. Zeider played various infield positions that season according to Baseball Reference and, tellingly, in the account of the game he made a high throw to first for an error. Much more likely an error by a shortstop. So that objection may indeed be disposed with.

EDIT Also more likely Jax would have tried to advance on a grounder to the right side.

Bob- I'm shocked you are already getting inquiries on this. When did Brett start this thread, a couple of days ago?
