Can anybody tell me if this is an "official" card or not, as I can't find it in the database? Replicards makes me think it's not licensed.

Looks like a whole 30-card set was made

Thanks for that link. Should they be added to the database?

Looks unlicensed to me. Clearly not a Replicards 100% original design and no reference to O-Pee-Chee or Topps for their original design. No copyright or license info other than Replicard 1991. Why would Topps / OPC would let another party using their products that way when they already reprint them (too often)? I guess that the clue is in the word "promo" on the top of the front side, but still...

Apparently, the "Promo" on the front of this card is because it was simply that, not part of the set.

These can be added if you can come up with the 30-card checklist.

I would be happy to take on the task of adding these. I have a few questions though, since I have never added a set before. First, since they were listed as 3 series, should they then be 3 sets? Second, should they be listed under "Reprints" sets or "Oddball" sets? Third, since the Orr card was a promo for the sets, should it go in as an insert single, and if so, with which series? Fourth, do these go as 1991 set or 1991-92 set?

Make it one set and add the Orr as a standalone Promo. If the cards themselves don't have any numbering tied to the set, use the numbers found on the back of the card. The set name should have "(Unlicensed)" at the end and go in the Unlicensed category, and I would make it just 1991 since that was the year of release and the set isn't tied to the 1990-91 or 1991-92 season.

The checklists shown in the link to the ebay seller of these cards has them in 3 series. Series 1 has cards #1-6, series 2 #1-12, series 3 #1-12. How can these be added as one set? I don't see a category named "Unlicensed".

The "Unlicensed" category doesn't appear when creating a set but will be in the dropdown after going back in and editing it.
Do the cards themselves have #1-12 anywhere or are they just that way for the checklists?
Two options for the set:
1) three individual sets for Series 1/2/3 and no clear place for the promo card
2) one set formatted as inserts only, then create three insert sets for Series 1, Series 2 and Series 3, and probably a 4th for the promo
