Lennon's 'Peace' Lyrics Up for Auction
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/news/archive/2005/10/25/entertainment/e055154D17.DTL&type=music

The envelope on which John Lennon handwrote the lyrics of "Give Peace a Chance" is going on the auction block.


The words to the song, which Lennon and Yoko Ono recorded in a Montreal hotel room during a 1969 "bed-in" for peace, are on both sides of the envelope.


Bonhams auction house, which re-enacted the event Monday at Montreal's Queen Elizabeth Hotel, said it hopes to fetch at least $250,000 for the envelope at an auction in London next month.
