I remember seeing cards similar to this in the 1960's when I was a child.
If only we were all asked to give from our hearts more.

I vaguely remember seeing similar cards when I was a child, although if memory serves they were from WWII vets who'd lost a limb.

I remember when they passed these cards out on the street corners!
