Very nice card, Larry! That's one on my wish list.
It is the 1970 Fleer Dragstrips "card."
Beckett's set information: "Fleer produced this 10-card set primarily as backers for their Dragstrips stickers. With each 5-cent wax pack, collector's received one of these cards and a group of automotive stickers. The cards are oversized (approximately 2-1/2" by 4-1/2") and blankbacked as are the sticker sheets. The black and white cards feature uncaptioned photos of top racers with an emphasis on Andy Granatelli and the STP IndyCar race team. We've assigned card numbers according to alphabetical order."
Jones is one of those racers I admire so much because he raced just about anything on four wheels.
