I think someone used some tickets to reinforce (or reback) their cards. The cards have all been trimmed significantly from the original size the ticket would have had to be. The fact that different sets have that same back also leads one to think a kid this on their own. Also, that crease on that E120 is so much worse on the E120 than the smaller crease is on the ticket backing.

It could have been a simple preference for thicker card stock or possibly to help them with their game of “shooter” (one would pitch their cards against a wall in a pseudo-gambling game played by kids).
