Tref: good luck finding someone that remembers it!

By the way, my grandmother died well before I was born.

But getting back to the key... the year it was given to me, I tried to use it, and after about an hour and them finding some VP that had been around long enough to remember it, they said I'd have to give up the key for the pass. Never going to happen, because, IMHO, the key is MORE valuable than the monetary value of a lifetime pass. That's its BASE value. Add to that the novelty of it being from 7/17/55, AND the fact that, for me, it's a family heirloom, and it's worth far more than just the base value.

By the way, by virtue of ebay and people who don't know what they have, we actually acquired a second key (my mom bought it, because the bidding went beyond what I could afford).
