Once upon a time, dear friends, I bought a strange pick in a music shop. It was made in green felt. Never seen one before, nor after. Keep in a drawer, never to be used... Will probably be thrown away the day I split.
Might have been at the same time, somewhere in the mid or late 60's, that another strange item fell into my thumbs. It's a pick in thick plastic, to be put on the thumb, like a guitar pickers pick. But waaay bigger!
Does this sound familiar to anyone? (Sound of feets dragged in snow - don't worry, it's just to visualize the sound of the felt pick)
