The 1984 Fleer Glenn Hubbard Snake card is a good one and has a funny back story- https://www.mlb.com/news/glenn-hubba...story-revealed

A darker card would be the 1990-91 Hoops Mark Jackson card as it features the Menendez Brothers sitting in the front row.This set was issued several months after they were arrested for the murders and was not noticed for quite some time.
Yep, those definitely meet the criteria… I’m also trying to recall the old timer ballplayer who died (sorry, another dark story) when he fell over Niagara Falls… that may be another candidate “card with a story” criteria.
