I agree with Scott. It's a wet sheet transfer not a true ghost image and they're almost always the same image as the front.

Default Thanks for input everyone
It is Chance on the front - so that may make sense.

Default Difference between wet sheet transfer & ghost image
would be that wet sheet was just cards stacked on top of each other prior to being dry, whereas a ghost image would have been printed directly to the card (missing inks or just one run or whatever)? Is that correct? So wet sheet would be reversed, while a ghost image would not be?

Haha, thanks! It looked like his hair was parted in the middle, which narrowed it down considerably.

The additional value a tobacco card garners by having a ghosted image on it.
