Memorabilia has always been a big part of the music world, going back right back to the advent of record shops. Whether it was promotional only material that was distributed by labels, or weird and wonder items manufactured by the bands or labels for general sale, they make for nice collector’s pieces and can really finish off a collection.
We see all kind of memorabilia pass through our hands and below are just a few of the highlights that we have in stock at eil.com
DAVID BOWIE Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence (Incredibly Rare and Original Vintage 1980s’s UK WAREHOUSE label, short-sleeved T-shirt made of 100% cotton. This T Shirt was given to crew working on the movie Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence. The front displays white text (‘The Oshima Gang’) on black. The Oshima Gang refers to Nagisa Oshima, the director of the film. The reverse has black text ‘Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence’ printed to the red reverse. An extremely hard to find and collectable t-shirt; the first we have ever seen. This incredibly rare item appears lightly worn with some discolouration to the print. There are no holes and it remains overall in Excellent condition. A rare surviving example!) See more info for further size guide…
KATE BUSH Kate Bush Tour (Rare 1979 UK 12-page colour tour programme, features stunning pictures of Kate with facsimile hand-written letter on the front cover, three untorn colour postcards of Kate on stage, three lilac/white tour flyers, unused ‘Kate Bush Club’ application form and ‘Kate Bush Club’ letter from the fan club secretary with space for comments on reverse. All presented in a superb custom A4 textured colour picture folder with stylised portrait of Kate on the front andback, plus tour dates and Kate picture inside. A great collectors item that has survived the passage of time very well indeed with all contents graded a stunning near mint).
THE DAMNED Disciples Song Book (Rare 1977 UK first issue mail-order only 28-page illustrated A4 magazine style songbook with ‘Printed by Zigzag’ text on inner front page. Includes the lyrics from the debut album, Stretcher Case and Sick Of Being Sick, along with many more titbits, including some great passport style photos of the chaps. The cover has some minor creasing, otherwise this copy remains in lovely near ‘as new’ condition, which is all but amazing for 48 year old paper goodsin general, but even more so for 48 year old Damned memorabilia!)..
