    Does anyone know what this card is?

    Hi,
    I have had this card for 35 years and I've never been able to figure out what it is. Here are the front and back sides. Has anyone seen something like this? I'd love to hear some thoughts.
    Thanks!

    Did you pull it from a pack? Looks like a 1966 Topps #2 Ted Abernathy card on the front and a promo for the 1966 Topps Rub Offs on the back. Don't know if they ever made a promo or insert for those cards back in 1966 as I never opened a pack of this stuff but a wrong back or error of this is pretty cool to have. Probably has a market for vintage error collectors too since it does have Sandy Koufax on it.

    I pulled it out of a bag of 60s cards my uncle gave me in the 80s. The Topps rub off does seem to be the right ballpark but as far as I can tell that card didn't look quite the same as mine:

    It's a mystery but yeah maybe a cool thing to have. Thanks!

    Greetings:
    @jonahsachs its from a 1966 salesman promo from what I detect even though it according to the tcdb.com site its not listed I'm sure that it is one of them.

    That's really useful information. Thanks @BSEBALLCOMMISH75

    Despite its terrible condition do you think it has value?
