Tomorrow's Men

Tomorrow's men are still boys today, so they need a club. This card is in the Lake Shore Electric 150, but I would think it must be later than the end of service in 1938. And that applies to some of the others we've seen, such as Khruschev, of course. On the other hand, this one has a penciled note saying "LSE Ry car #97" so I'm not sure what to think. The 150 has been through so many different uses it's hard to know what, if anything, is original.
(Note: #97 was a city car; when service ended in 1938 it became a cottage at Sage's Grove and survived at least into the 50's, so it is possible this card came from that car.)
