Unusual stamp on back of Post Cereal Card
 
This card has a stamp that reads “Ludwigsburg Commissary” AFO 107 US FORCES”

Has anyone seen this on other such cards, or other sports collectibles?

Only thing is, this was not cut off the back of a cereal box. The perforations show this card is off of a mail in company sheet.

I find others listed here:

So someone had owned these cards while stationed in Germany for the US armed forces.
