Do you still have your paper A&P license?

If you have not yet converted to the plastic A&P license, the paper one will no longer be valid after March 31, 2013.

FAA Safety Team | Safer Skies Through Education
A&P Certificate Replacement
Notice Number: NOTC4449
If you have already replaced your paper A&P certificate, then this message is not for you. On the other hand, if your A&P certificate is still printed on paper, please read carefully.
The FAA is under a mandate to replace all paper certificates with plastic certificates. If you do not replace your paper certificate on or before March 31, 2013, you will no longer be able to exercise your privileges!
All certificated Airmen, including mechanics, repairmen, pilots, etc., are required to replace their paper copy with a plastic copy, or they will no longer be able to exercise the privileges of that certificate.
The best way to get a new replacement certificate is to follow the instructions at http://www.faa.gov/licenses_certificate ... placement/.
The replacement cost is $2.00, unless you still have your Social Security Number on your certificate and you ask to have it removed.
Avoid the Rush! Apply today!

That would make it an A & E license and have a series of random number printed on it since your SSN as an identifier didn't become SOP until the sort of lateish 60's I know I had a choice when I got mine, went with SSN. His is a keeper and should be under glass.
I think somewhere in a box or book I've got every one of my old ones (you get a newly issued one when you tell them you've moved).
