Default mystery plant leaf

A friend recently sent me this leaf for identification. [ they must be
confused if they think i know stuff ].

It 'was' quite green apparently, but since lying about has turned a
yellowy colour. The spine is black and quite a hard material. The lines
at right angles to the length are just where it's been folded to go in an
envelope for posting.

Grateful for any info on what plant this might be please, thanks.



Is it an outdoor plant or a houseplant? A shrub? What?
How big is the leaf? Does it flower? Much more info needed than a photo
of a dead leaf unfortunately ;-)
My wildest guess is ficus.
