Ken,
Yes, there were Goudey reprints made in the mid-1970's and the Foxx card in question is from the first of those series. There were three diff. series of 32 cards with the first series being on glossy, thin card stock. Going from memory here - they first came out around 1975 I believe. At first they did not say "Reprint" but at some point they were stamped on the back "REPRINT". The second and third series were on thicker card stock with no gloss and have no stamp. I rememebr these well because they were the first cards I ever bought via mail-order from Den's Collectors Den in 1977. Still have them. That was over 35 years ago...
