Still insanely curious about the green one - still looks like it came from some sort of game to me, possibly not even a baseball or sports game since the question on the back is completely non-sports related.

The Cobb is a reprint issue of the Rowe's that is a common card used to trick collectors. It seems one of those is posted every 3 months for ID. I personally believe these are from the mid 80's as I never remember one prior to around 85'. This one looks purposely tea stained to make it look older to pass off as vintage.

I think you are right on the Trivia card and it is from a larger unrelated to sports set. From the general look of it, I would think late 50's, early 60's. I would think little value on it's own and hard to ID the set without the help of a vintage board game expert.
