bugo, it was probably a Series 1957 bill, since there wasn't a Series 1956. There were millions of these printed and though you rarely find one in...

Nice looking card! That means mine should arrive any day now.
Ohhhh, you've really opened Pandora's Box now! This forum is rich with veins of ABNC vignettes if you do a little mining. Try a Forum Search for...
