Some sets included popular music or movie personalities as well as well known cartoon/comic characters. That might be what you have.

BTW...the symbol at the top is typical...you see rock/paper/scissors on lots of the different sets.
The numbers on menko cards are not a card number. Much like the paper, rock, scissors symbol, the numbers were for use in a game.

Edit to add:

Your card looks similar to 1960s menkos that don't depict actual players. They are cartoon characters.
