Roger Stone, an operative and longtime Republican party member, is selling as Non-Fungible token. The magazine covers are autographed by Donald Trump (an ex-US president). Speaking in a 54-second-long video, Stone stated that the cover in question was the Real Estate – New York, a now-defunct trade publication. The cover is one Stone admired and became the benchmark for every other publication he used.

According to Stone, the major reason for selling the autographed cover was to enable him to raise funds to cover his legal expenses as a result of defending himself in several civil lawsuits, which he described as “harassment civil suits.” Stone is quoted as saying,

“Between the cost of defending myself in 6 remaining merit-less but sensationalized harassment civil suits and the J-6 [January 6th] Witchhunt my legal expenses are formidable.”

The magazine cover would be sold as an NFT, a special kind of digital art that is not interchangeable and forms part of several items within a wider collection of NFTs belonging to Stone’s memorabilia.
