Anyone have any clue about what this exactly is and where it came from?

It is a 1920s issues called Major League Position Players Punch Outs or something like that. Very common usually go for around $20. They were part of a large sheet that consisted of the whole team, and in some cases (or all) you pasted the names on the players. Sorry my memory is bad.

They are listed in the SCD under Major League Baseball Die-Cuts (I don't have mine at work so it might not be exact), as stated they came in sheets with no names present and the person then applied the little sticker/stamps that had the name, position, etc. was applied to the figure. They aren't too common, and can be tough if you are looking for a particluar person. Commons usually sell for $20-30 or potentially more as there are players found like this that have no other cards, which would increase demand. Hall of Famers usually sell for double or more. I know Andy Cook collects these (at least he did).
