I saw one of these at a card show outside L.A. about ten years ago for a pretty cheap price. I was then only collecting baseball cards, but could now kick myself for not nabbing it. Looks like the same printer who made the Obak T212 series.

Holy Crap!
 That's by far the weirdest card I've ever seen. Looks like something out of Monty Python.

The get-up is pretty typical for the era. The medals for winning various events, and the flag sash indicating a US championship in some sport.
He was also a very competetive bicyclist before motorcycle racing came along. There's a couple of his cycling medals on Ebay right now. A bit pricy, but national championship medals from the US or Canada aren't common. I paid about the same for the US national champions medal I have http://cgi.ebay.com/c1896-Bicycling-...item3364ce3469 Steve B
