A gift given to ''M.A.S.H.'' writer Thad Mumford to commemorate the final episode of the most watched television show. A pair of dog tags encased in lucite read, ''Thad Mumford / 2288360.377'' and ''MASH / Feb 28, 1983 CBS / 50,230,000 Homes / Goodbye, Farewell and Amen [name of episode]''. The landmark episode, ending the 11th season, was the most watched TV broadcast until the 2010 Super Bowl broke its viewership record. The Lucite enclosing the dog tags is etched with ''60.3'', the rating of the show, representing the percentage of households tuned in to the episode. Surface scratches, else near fine.
