What kind of cards are these?

I just picked these up at a card show this weekend. They are roughly the size of a t206 with a blank back. I thought they might be four in one exhibits that are cut up, but aren't the exhibits in color? I also didn't see Eppa Rixey listed in any of the four in one exhibits from any year. What exactly are these ?

Not positive but think they are fantasy cards. I have owned 1-2. In other words, cards made to look old which aren't.

Was thinking the exact same thing! Looks like they were microwaved! :eek:

Fantasy cards which have type reminiscent of 1970s commemorative issues.

They look like Jim Rowe 4 on 1 cards from (I think) 1977 that are reminiscent of the 1930's 4-on-1 Exhibit cards. Obviously they have been cut down.

Totally the same photos as Rowe 4 on 1's, however those should be yellow.

I think these were actually reprints of Rowe's likely handed out at a show in 80's. I have seen these cut down white examples before.
