Silver lifetime admission card for USC athletic events.

This is a truly unique piece of USC history.  It is a pure silver card that gave the owner free admission to USC athletic events.  It says "University of Southern California  Three year varsity man.  This entitles William F. Lloyd #147 to attend home athletic contests free of charge for life. Subject to the rules of the athletic code."   Lloyd lettered in football in the 1896-1897 seasons, when they were known as the Methodists.   In 1897 the team went 5-1.   The back is stamped J.A. Meyers & Co. and Sterling.
