And you can have yourself a whole mess of "museum pieces" for just the price of shipping. :)

They should fit into a USPS priority mail fixed rate box.  If you could use these, pay postage ($8.10), and they are yours.

This makes me laugh!  My company (a company of about 10,000 in one metropolitan area) just finally changed over from Token Ring only about 4 years ago.  Every now and then I'll still find one of the old cards around.  Just saw one about 2 weeks ago in fact.

On a side note, I've got a couple Token Ring MAU's if anybody wants them for their museum!
