This
is a 1996 Mickey's Team Carl Lewis Donor Card. Given a few precious
extra weeks of life because of a liver transplant,
Mickey Mantle will be remembered for something more than
his heroic baseball career. This baseball great,
considered a hero by many, was overwhelmed by the
selfless gift of a liver from a stranger. Learning of
the critical need for organ and tissue donation, Mickey
became determined to give something back at the end of
his life. He directed that The Mickey Mantle Foundation
be established to promote organ and tissue donation, and
had this card issued to help promote it. He was very
proud of this. The Carl Lewis Card is Rare.
