It's not! This is from a known W-Uncat set, one of which had a Universal Toy & Novelty logo on it, so we know the maker (Jim Elliott). Thus far the checklist of baseball subjects is around 5-6 different. Leon was making a joke about the mis-identification of the set as the MUCH MORE COMMON W560. The card is quite rare and has decent value... just not anywhere near the # here (Leon knew this and that's why he made the joke/post).

Here is an Old Cardbpoard eNews by Lyman/Brett after the cards were discovered...
