A memory of my father - The Vanderbilt Cup

[jwg]

My father was a serious bridge player among other things. In 1939 he was a member of the team who won the Vanderbilt Cup, one of the top tournaments. I of course still have his trophy.

More reasons: My father and his father died of heart attacks at the age of 55 while playing bridge.
