A couple of years ago, my wife and I took a factory tour of the Yuengling's facility at Pottsville, PA. After the tour, I asked our guide about the Yuengling's baseball cards produced in 1928 when Yuengling's was making ice cream during Prohibition. The guide knew of the ice cream production, but was totally unaware of the baseball cards.
The OP may be interested to know that the Yuengling cards have two different back narratives. Here's an example of each for Sam Rice:
