"Compliments of John E. Kaughran & Co., Dry Goods. 767 & 769 Broadway, cor. of Ninth St., New York."
This is one of a six-part "Comic Visiting" card series printed by E. Currier & Co., Boston (probably related to the Currier of Currier & Ives but I'm not sure how). Other cards show a woman offering a cracker to a parrot (see below), a man peering through his eyeglasses at an owl, and a baby dangling a cup or something else to get a dog's attention.

Back row, left to right: first two, Nora and Estella (or Estella and Nora), Alta, and Clarence Munch.
I couldn't make out the name of the studio, only that it was taken in Fremont, Ohio.
Samuel Munch was born October 1863 in Sandusky, Ohio, the son of blacksmith George Munch (1842-1909) and Elizabeth L. Schatz (1842-1932). In 1870, Samuel was living with his parents and two siblings in Washington Township, Sandusky, Ohio; the family had real estate valued at $500 and a personal estate of $150. In 1885, Samuel was on his own, working as a blacksmith in Otter, Cowley, Kansas. That year, he married Margaret Ellen “Ella” Offut, who was born in December 1865 in Missouri, the daughter of Zedekiah M. Offut (1828-1910) and Sara Elizabeth Borthick (1837-1910). In 1870, Sarah was living on a farm in Johnson City, Missouri with her parents and six siblings. From 1875 to 1885, she lived in Jefferson, Kansas, with her parents and siblings. Samuel and Margaret had four children in Kansas by 1890, two of them born in Cedarvale. In 1900, Samuel, Margaret, and seven children were living in Scott, Sandusky, Ohio, where Samuel was an oil pumper. In 1910, the family was living in Freemont, Ohio, and Samuel was working in a furniture factory. At some point after that, Samuel and Margaret relocated to Claremore, Rogers, Oklahoma, where they were living in 1920; Samuel was listed as a proprietor of a confectionary.

Cabinet card by Hutchings Bros. R. R. Photo Car. Written on the back is "Compliments of Mary Crum (or Crunn?) age 18 yrs., Donner, Kans., Mch. 13, 1887."
There were quite a number of photographers named Hutchings with railroad car studios. Hutchings Bros. , circa 1884-1886 (and obviously 1887) are listed in Brown's book on Traveling Photographers. There was also a "Hutchings & Crum Railroad Photo Car" that seems to have been connected. Perhaps Mary was part of the photographer's family?

HE STALKED A NAMELESS MENACE IN THE CHICAGO SLUMS
From the Introduction:
HUNTER ON THE PROWL . . .
Following a trail that twisted out from a shabby boarding house into the teeming, neon-splashed streets of the Chicago north side.
Ed Hunter was looking for a man – a man who had disappeared without reason into the wilderness of smoky rooms and plush-lined deadfalls where Augie Grane ruled the numbers racket.
Then a harmless little guy who sold insurance was killed and the whole vicious scheme began to crack. Ed Hunter kept moving in . . . watching . . . knowing he would find his man – and maybe death too!
