Default ID help this hand cut Roy Campanella "card"

This "card" is slightly larger than a 1955 Bowman baseball card, and appears to be cut off a box of some kind. About as thick as a baseball card too. Any idea where it came from?

Looks to be from a "Spark Up" Wheaties ad from 1954. Was in comics and other stuff, presumably one of which was cardboard and not paper based.

Ad page stolen image from eBay. Obviously not quite the source like above poster states, as it isn't cardboard, but the same image and probably closely related to this piece. Pretty cool item

Perhaps a cut-out was mounted to the cardboard by a kid looking to create a 'card'??

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
