Card ID Help?

[Hot Springs Bathers]

Fist of all let me apologize for not having a photo of the card I can't indentify!

Yesterday I was called by a friend to look at a fairly large set of tobacco and caramel cards. A elderly gentleman had brought them to my friend looking for a buyer.

The group was really varied, 7 T-206s including Cobb bat-on and & Cobb bat-off and a Cy Young. There were 26 E91s, a T204 Powell and a E95 Merkle, 105 T218s, 14 E79 boxers and 20 E46 Indians.

The T206s and E79s were in the best condition and the rest all "1s or at best an occasional 2" with the E46 Indians the worst.

My question comes to one baseball card I have never seen before. It was the same size as the T218s, black border framing a black & white actual photo of a player bending over to field a ball. The reverse had four rows in color with suits of playing cards-hearts-diamonds, etc.. The only wording was if a card is lost substitute a joker-at least that is what my hurried notes say.

Any idea what this was? I found no indentification of the player.

The real sad news was that the gentleman told me at first that his selling price was firm at 100K. I did not want to insult him but said I felt that he had about $2,500 in cards which I offered. After a couple of moments of silence he countered with 50K. I said I was afraid this took me out of it but wished him good luck and left him my phone number. I really don't expect to hear from him. Someone has convinced him he has a goldmine.

Any help would be appreciated, my curiosity about the mystery card is getting to me.
