Hal--Didn't you make the arguement in a prior thread that the card was tied to the cigar box? Wasn't that the reason why the card was not a trade card, because it was distributed with a tobacco product like a card in a cigarette box? Are you now saying that that analysis was wrong? Unless you can definitively tie either the address or the phone number to only pre-1900 times I can see no way to establish that the card was issued prior to 1900.
