Possibly, or lithographed tin. I can see that this is backed by cardboard or some cardstock/paper but in the photo of the upper corner it looks to me like it's pitted as if on metal. If you take the nails out of the back and take the backing off that will tell you (won't devalue it if done carefully).
Lithograph/Poster?
