This is a thread where you can show off pictures of your coolest, bestest, PW/Mats stuff. Keeping in mind that I am the world's worst photographer, I have attempted to photograph my very cool pin from the 1993 tour. It's pewter, about an inch and 1/2 in diameter, and it's an ashtray with a broken cigarette butt in it. Around the top of the pin it says "Paul Westerberg" and around the bottom "U.S. Tour". The picture with my cat nosing at it shows a) the actual color of it and b) its size relative to my cat's nose. The other picture was a very unsuccessful attempt for me to snap it straight on so you could read the lettering and it all came out kinda...brown. I have another something cool I'm going to try and dig up tomorrow, that will hopefully turn out a little better. In the meantime, everyone else, please chime in!

^^ Those extreme muscle pictures make me want to hurl. Seriously, there's something about them that creeps me out so much, my stomach clenches up. It's like the visual equivalent of fingernails/bacon on a chalkboard.

Wow...I never saw this, but somewhere around the house I have a PTMM handbuzzer I could display.. CF I bought it several years ago on eBay, I couldn't resist. I hadn't seen one before and I asked Darren about them, He said they were very scarce and that there was another pin made as well, but I'm blanking out on what that one looked like. I'm vaguely remembering that it was the same except for the writing but I could be wrong. I have a PTMM blue paper placemat, PTMM seems to have had the best stuff - a mobile, the hand buzzer, the placemat.

I've never seen the ashtray pin. cool.
PTMM was the best, but I did like the invisible dog leash from ASD & the Westerberg rubber band.
Many moons ago, Big Wheel mentioned having a "Hoot" subway poster. That's something I've never seen before. I'd dig a pic of that.

I picked up the ashtray pin at Lupos in December of '93. I also grabbed a shirt that I don't see too often. A white shirt with a triple image that says 'As Not Heard on the Radio' and 'or Seen on TV' (words to that effect) on the other side. Does that ring a bell?

I don't have anything collectible (read: crap I can sell on ebay if I need beer money), but I do have almost every magazine Paul or the Replacements have appeared in. Does that count? The only one I don't have, curiously, is their Musician cover (89, I think). I met Paul in Louisville, and it didn't even occur to me to get his autograph. I just thanked him for letting me take a few pictures.

Says "To Jim, Funk You, Like P. W." My regret is that I wasn't there, a friend took it to Chicago for me.
