Card Identification Forum

I've been trying to figure this out for a while now with no luck. Does anyone know where this card comes from or what card set or how it was obtainable? It is slightly smaller in size than a standard trading card and appears to be from 1997 and possibly some sort of Chromium type set.

This almost surely would have been available at comic shops as a promotional item...possibly inserted into a comic or magazine but unlikely. 

If I remember correctly (I had a couple in my collection for a long time) They were comic shop givaways from the distributor. In my local comics shops case I think it was included with the monthly distributor pre order book. There was not a set just the stand alone ID card.

It has Topps' Chrome patent on there.

One lead I have, is it was a pack-in for Wizard magazine?

That is what it is a card shop giveaway promo. I think at the time Marvel was launching one of their huge multi-title cross-over events that involved The Avengers. 

I had one (It is still around somewhere I think but in beat up shape). I had taped a photo of me (from an old student ID card) onto it and kept it in my wallet for a period of time (thus the beat up shape). After several years the photo tore or wore off of the card so I had to take the rest of it off. UhOh I might have gotten rid of it.

My guess would have been Wizard magazine promo. Thank you everyone who took the time to help me out with this

Wizard Magazine promo

Not from Wizard. We got that publication and do not have the card, have never had the card.

I actually have two of those and found it once but can't remember where. It is on the site and I think I did open a mystery thread to find it.
