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?

9/11 in-flight magazinesMr Safetyfox works for a company that puts all the free stuff on planes.
At about midday on Sept 11 2001 they had an urgent call from BA asking them to take off all the September issue of the in-flight magazine and pulp them. The reason being that there was a double-page ad for Cunard showing the pre-9/11 NY skyline, with a couple on the deck of a cruise ship looking at it.
The strapline says 'New York might have changed, but the best way to get there hasn't.'
Mr S made sure he grabbed a copy. We can't decide whether to Ebay it or not.
