I think you are right on the Trivia card and it is from a larger unrelated to sports set. From the general look of it, I would think late 50's, early 60's. I would think little value on it's own and hard to ID the set without the help of a vintage board game expert.

Thanks - that makes sense on the Cobb card - I never thought it was worth much if anything since it was obviously cut and in bad shape, but still I wanted to know what it was.
Regarding the green Trivia card - when I got it (as part of a large collection), it was labeled as 1930's game card - no idea whether that was accurate or just someone's guess. I guess I'll have to troll some vintage game boards to see if I can identify it. Whether it's worth anything or not, it is a pretty cool item. It's about as tall as a regular card and twice as wide.
