Never seen a porcelain baseball "card". That is very cool.
Did a little sleuthing. Carey played for Memphis from 1906 to 1909 so that dates the item to then. You wonder if similar pieces were made for his other team-mates. For instance, Moonlight Graham played twelve games for Memphis in 1906 following his major league "career". A long shot but it gets the imagination salivating.
