Can anybody ID this Brooklyn Dodgers issue?

I found this while rooting through some boxes of miscellaneous memorabilia. It's only a reprint, but I'm still curious what it is. I gather it's a turn-of-the-century team card, similar to 1913 Fatima, but I can't find anything to match on the Web. Blank reverse except for a tiny "Reprint."

    Universal toy and novelty mfg. co. did a set in 1922 W-504 which included four team cards - just wondering if this is a reprint of that set?

    It's a blank back set and not very good looking - this is the plight of all the "W" series cards - I have a hint - if anyone can pick up real copies of the W series card reasonable - I think these may be what people will be looking for in the future since they will be more affordable. What do ya think?

    Also, of interest with the card is the background - my guess - spring training.

    Mike, are you implying there were no palm trees outside Ebbetts Field??

    Hey, bingo! Thanks a lot!
