This day in music On this Day April 30, 2008

Gail Renard, who was given the hand written lyrics to ‘Give Peace A Chance’ by
John Lennon in 1969, announced plans to sell the lyric sheet at a Christie’s auction. At the time, Lennon told Renard to hang on to the piece of paper, saying “It will be worth something someday.” The piece of music history was expected to fetch around $400,000, but when it was actually sold in July of this year, it went for $790,000 (£400,000).
