I have several things from Millvina Dean, as well.  She was a great lady. 

Your card is from the relatively short period of time (about 3 years) when she was the last living survivor. 

Her common inscription "youngest survivor" turned into "youngest and last survivor".

Thanks, but that is not a card. It is a hand tinted 1924 photograph taken on Adriatic, the WS liner that took Dean, her mother and brother home after the sinking, and also the liner Captain Smoth brought over on her MV and was interviewed aboard saying "I have never been wrecked or seen a wreck Modern shipbuilding has gone beyond that." I chose that photograph specifically. It is unique.

That is super cool and definitely a one of a kind type of item.

I would point to a certain violin but the factual data I and others put online has somehow been removed...

I remember reading about it and found it very interesting and also fascinating that there are a few versions of the story about the violin.
