Default C.1932 Babe Ruth World Series Blank Back Real Photo Premium? Postcard?

Anyone have any more info on this Ruth real photo card? It's blank backed and postcard size on card stock. Glossy front. Sepia toned.

All I've seen as far as info/cataloguing is from Ron Menchine's Baseball Postcard Collection book. One of these cards is featured on the front cover of the book. On page 72. Menchine calls it a real photo premium postcard (photo from Wrigley field v. Cubs 1932 W.S.)

Anyone have one of these or know anyone who does? Or know anything more on who issued it, with what, etc?

I saw the one on the vintageball website http://www.vintageball.com/WhatsThis.html

They speculate there that it may have come with and without a postcard reverse. Maybe a promo or give away with something soon after the world series? Possibly a newspaper premium? Just guesses

On vintage ball they call it a real-photo-premium or postcard.

Any info appreciated.
