Created on a typewriter, with my last name spelled incorrectly! LOL!

It must be from the early 1960's. I have a brother 10 years younger than I, and my mom went and got SS cards for all of us at the same time - so I always know their SS numbers because they were all sequential.

I don't know how it is that I still have the card, one of the advantages of never throwing anything away, I guess!

LOL!
