I don't think it's fake. But I'm not certain as to authenticity. The address is correct for the 2nd Washington Park. And the chronology of the year, dates,and days of the week are correct, I checked.

It looks like a pocket schedule... like the ones we see now, and they've been around for about 60 years or so. That one you have would be twice that old. Anyone here see a pocket schedule that folds like modern ones for the 1910's, or 1920's??

If it doesn't glow then we're good. A black light is one fine tool for a vintage collector, everyone fooling around here should have one. The lights are cheap. And one glowing card will pay for the cost of the light. The TPG guys should use one EVERY time; it would avoid the embarrassment of having something in a slab fluoresce, or maybe they'd not be embarrassed by that.
