Obscure MemorabiliaAt home my other half has a broken piece of a piano. Just a single hammer from a broken piano. And yet this twisted bit of wood and metal is a piece from the piano that they flung in the TV series Northern Exposure. We've also got some gardening tools from the first series of Big Brother.
What wierd stuff do you own that has a history?

I keep some stupid things...I still have a whole bunch of Pokémon cards still in their card holders, because one day Pokémon will come back, and I can sell them for a bucket load (even though I know that will never happen because Pokémon as a fad is shite (although the first games are still good (which reminds me, I spilt tea on my first copy of Pokémon Blue, which ruined it, but I still have it hanging around somewhere (even though I don't even own a Game Boy any more)))).
I also keep instruction manuals to old games that I have since lost.
And the stupidest things I keep hold of are hundreds and hundreds of old magazines that I know I will never read again, but you never know when it will be 1994 again and I'll need that copy of GamesMaster I bought when I was 7 to keep on the cutting edge. Not only that, but I still keep pages that have been ripped off them, in case I want to read them too!
