This card was part of the Supermen of America club kit. It was obtained by sending your name and address in with 10 cents to DC Comics. It was issued quite a long time from 1940 to 1961. Hard to tell what year yours is. A good book to research is the Hakes Pop Culture Memorabilia book.

 

Here is what a complete 1948 kit consists of: (all kits have the same contents with subtle changes to the pinback button)

Here is a complete set of pinbacks including the rare smaller version issued during wartime and the very rare Great Britain version from the 1950's. The buttons along the bottom row date 1940, 1948, 1955 and 1961 from left to right.
