Dan Carson-Its an original 1933 Goudey, not a reprint. Upper Deck bought these cards from a third party(dealer) and inserted them randomly into modern packs as an incentive to collectors to buy their product. I've recently learned on another board that these original Goudey cards were inserted at a rate of 1 per case. Other companies have done this before. As Frank mentioned above, Topps has inserted original T205, T206 & T207 cards into modern packs in the past. I own a few myself.

packs-The original Goudey card was in a penny sleeve along with the verification card (also in the sleeve) right behind it.
