I've had this for a long time, probably 25+ years, and I can't remember where I got it. I think it's an advertising piece... for music stores? Probably 1970s. It's made of the same material as a standard guitar pick. Anyone ever seen one of these?

...yes Doug, i have one myself. I was a guitar salesman at E. U. Wurlitzer's in Boston from 1980 to 1984 and Eli Rabkin who was the Guild Guitar rep for the New England area in the 70's and 80's gave me this pick. He and Jody Carver, who many of you are familiar with, were frequent visitors to our shop back then in their travels.

S.Seitu, thanks for your reply! This is the kind of info I was looking for. Yes, I thought this was an advertising/sales piece. Sounds like it might be kind of rare. I just wish I could remember where I got it. They say the memory is the first thing to go! Cool

I remember those giant picks in music stores back then as well. It seems I had one at one time, but what was that you said about memory?

In this case it'd be a race between the wrist, arm, or shoulder!
