It looks like they simply took the larger, obviously posed photo and photoshopped it onto the "action" shot. Rather clumsily, from the look....I've seen internet memes with better cut and paste work.

I don't think that was all that uncommon to see a card pictured in an ad that was never made. I remember seeking the 1993 UD gold bordered Frank Thomas 5th anniversary insert card I saw in a trade publication ad until I finally realized it did not exist. It was black bordered like the rest of the set, not gold. The ad lied to us!

It's not just ads.
This giant-size Pete Alonso card was used at Citi Field as part of the starting lineup display at the top of the Jackie Robinson Rotunda behind home plate. Thing is, at the time this photo was taken (4/4/19, the Mets' home opener), Alonso didn't have a Topps card. He didn't get one until Series 2, and the image used on that card was not the one used here. ![]() This is Pete Alonso's actual genuine real 2019 Topps card (#475).
