This reminds me of something that happened to a friend of mine a couple years ago. He was a fan of underground trading cards with nude cartoon charactors and had a topless Little Mermaid in his wallet when it was stolen (I never asked why). The wallet was recovered, its non-monetary contents having been scattered all over an alley, and the police bagged each individual item as evidence. When he went to the station to claim it, an officer handed him each item and asked if it was his, whereupon the officer would dictate the name they had given each item to another officer who checked them off a list. The other officer was a student in a computer class my friend was teaching.
"Drivers license" - "check""library card" - "check""nudie cartoon card" - "check"
Oddly, I think he still carries it (again, I don't ask why).
