The envelope on which John Lennon wrote 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 hoped to fetch at least $250,000 for the envelope at an auction in London next month.
