I'm not talking about your card front border transfering to the back but another cards border.

Ron,
That's a very interesting and plausible idea. The fact that this is a "Polar Bear" back might lend credence to this theory. The "tobacco product" might have acted like glue between two cards. Although there is a good sized stain in the upper left corner the back is very smooth and there is currently no "sticky" product on the card. So I am still unsure as to the origin...
