yep Richard, I remember them. I also liked Time Has Come Today. Damn I'm getting old.

Trimming notwithstanding, wouldn't the fact that this specific card has such a story behind it add to its value?

I would think so; at the very least, I doubt the value will go down. After all, are people really buying a T206 Wagner any more, or an object with a story behind it? As Rich said, it's "rare, iconic and famous", and it seems to be an unending source of attention. Now, tied up in an FBI investigation, it just has bolstered its pre-existing claim to notoriety.

Great song. Check this out, the best remake of Time has Come Today that I've heard, and by a huge card collector (RIP):

That entire album is great. Gets panned because it's uncharacteristically polished, but I like it.

Wow...I was and am a very big fan of the Ramones early stuff (in fact, I saw them at a small Hollywood club on one of their first West Coast tours back in the 70's) and I never knew they did this song. Very cool. RIP Johnny, Joey and Dee Dee.

Yup. One of my favorites, but Rocket to Russia rules the roost!!
