ID help on this old football "card"
 

I purchased this at the National for a couple of dollars. I showed it to the old football card dealer AJ Firestone, and he couldn't help.

Cool photo
 

Very nice older photo. Could it be a rugby ball? Can’t quite tell from the scan…… I would guess roughly 1900-20??? Just a guess… well worth your few bucks spent in any case
