Card Identification Forum

I've been sorting through my father in law's card collection, and I came across this Eddie Taubensee card that doesn't provide a year but it does read "This card was printed by Eddie Taubensee" which makes me curious about cards which have been self-printed and how common that has been over the years. This card also seems to be part religious tract. I looked through the Eddie Taubensee cards on the site and didn't see this one. I have to ask my FIL for more info on how he came across it.

I know that I have a couple cards like this.  Not remembering the players at the moment.  I grew up as a missionary kid and I believe they were given to me at different churches we visited that supported my parents.

It's probably more common than you might think. Former players will have them printed up to either give to kids at clinics/events or to include in their through-the-mail autograph requests either to "spread the word" or to endorse their post career business ventures. I've gotten a handful over the years. 

Lake Speed did this in racing for a number of years. His were always autographed.
