I have a copy of the photo I could send you.

Any way that you could post the photo here? I would love to see it. If not, can you send me a copy to
baseballrarities@cox.net?
I would imagine that since the Baltimore News cards were issued with the upcoming season's schedule on the back, that they were also initially issued sometime during spring training. It is probably impossible to know which was made first.
