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

The book is fully bound in leather, with Lou and Mick’s Transformer image is recreated by hand on the cover of this craft-bound book in black, white and gold foil detailing, with matt art paper and tracing paper leaves, and matching gold page edging.
