NOTES:
 
   A week after Mickey Mantle received a liver transplant on June 8, 1995, he wanted to establish a foundation to provide awareness of the need for organ donors. He felt a great responsibility for having a second opportunity at life. He said "You know I've got to give something back. I thank God had a purpose for letting me have this extra time. Lets get a team of people together and see what we can do." Mickey's Team was born. Mantle's last wish, a new "Organ Donor" trading card was unveiled days after Mantles passing in August.

 Olympic Sprint champion Carl Lewis wanted to be part of "Mickey's team" and presented a $25.000 check from the Wendy Marx foundation, which he co-founded in 1989 after a close friend received a liver transplant that save her life. A donor organ trading card with Lewis' picture and facsimile autograph was printed and distributed by the Mickey Mantle Foundation in 1996. Mickey Mantle or Carl Lewis donor cards, were made available by sending a long, self addressed , stamped envelope to: The Mickey Mantle Foundation, 8080 N. Central Expressway, Suite 800, Dallas, Texas 75206.

 The front of the card features a personal Message from Carl Lewis, followed by his facsimile autograph. The card below the perforation pictures Carl Lewis and a short bio and statistics, with the Mickey Mantle Foundation, Mickey's Team logo. The back of the card is slightly different, with the middle noting appreciation of support of American Airlines, Nike, the Georgia Coalition on Donation, the Carlos and Marguerite Mason Trust.
