'68 along the side, which date could be inaccurate, but not likely to be early enough to represent Mimi's marriage to Dick, which is the only one I've ever heard that P attended. And at that ceremony he was indeed supposed to have a beast of a 'stache. In 1969 she married Milan Melvin and I'm pretty sure this dude is he, the groom.
