It would not make sense for the card to have a blank back and be issued as the other known cards were. It would also not make sense for the card to appear on an advertising piece and then not be issued with the set.

I think someone made a fantasy card for reasons we'll never know. If the set was produced prior to the start of the 1887 season, Steve Toole had only played 13 career games before inclusion. I don't know the careers of the other common players, but had anyone had a briefer career?
