May 11, 1986. My Dad was coaching my team and we had a game that night. Before the game he and Mom told me to come into their room that they had a special gift for my 13th bday. It was this 56' Mick. Dad bought it from a Kit Young catalogue for $35 (which was more than was normally spent on birthdays and more than Dad had ever spent on a card for himself at that point).
Dad passed almost 19 years ago at just 54 years old. I think about that day every time I see this card.
