Birthday Card (It's a Keith Kard!)

Title: Birthday Card
Medium: Wide-rule notebook paper, pencil, crayons
Artist: Keith Weiland
Date: May, 1988
Category: Greeting Card
Current Status: Waiting for Keith to become uber-famous so I can leak it to the media

For my 13th birthday, Keith Weiland saved himself $1.50 and made me this birthday card. I think he gave this to me along with the Beastie Boys' Licensed to Ill on cassette

At any rate, this is a fabulous card. On the front, in addition to calling me John-John, he has drawn three fruity characters, Mr. Lime, Mr. Cherry, and Mr. Grape. Whatever is the greeting inside?
"So Cherry up and have a Grape Lime!" Fortunately, he signed it so he can in no way deny having created this.
LOOK! It's the magical U-Turn arrow in the corner! That is the universal kid symbol for "Turn the sheet over, there's more!"
And on the back:"Hey you! It's a Keith Kard! ©1988 4202 Old Dominion Your Kuality Kard" and he signed it again.
Personally, I think Mr. Weiland had a goldmine waiting had he pursued his mutant ability to make awesome homemade birthday cards.

Okay Keith, enough for today. And I'm sure I've got plenty of other things to embarrass many other classmates.
