Title: John's wood

Hi all,

The piece of which into which John Lennon carved his lyrics to Maharishi/Sexy Sadie shortly after the India trip is coming up for sale at the Fame Bureau:

A great piece, as something which John evidently spent a fair amount of time on, and it has a great story from one of the most renowned periods of their career. To be honest, I'm not sure it will meet estimate though, seems a little ambitious considering the provenance isn't quite concrete.
