The piece is 140 years old and the only thing I care about is getting a better view of those naked ladies. God, I suck.

Cuba used to make a lot of those type of cards around 1900.

Bumping this thread one last time. I've had a chance to do a bit more research on composite cards. My learnings below and a bonus for Darren.
Photographers did sell celebrity souvenir cabinet cards for theatre performers. Composite cards these were used for order-by-number purposes. Example below. I have also attached a side-by-side of one of the of the tobacco trade cards I matched to. Apparently a knife company also found a way to transfer an image onto their products. If you were a baseball fan, you'd order #132 and have that awesome image on your c1880's pocketknife. Very cool! Finally, Darren here's the full size image of the card for you. Sorry for the wait.
