Default Any information would be appreciated

It is a spoof card. Made up by someone here. It was part of one of the best April Fool's jokes I've seen in a long time. About 3-5 board members were in on it.

Someone made this and included it innocently in a scan of 6 common cards or so, and posted it here as a question from someone who just found them.

It is the fantasy T206 of Joe Jackson, with the proof marks in the margins.

The theory is that JJ would have had to have been at least considered for the T206 set. Because there are no cards known, speculation is that none were printed. But, so the thinking goes, you'd think there would at least be proofs made at one time and maybe one of those survived somehow.
