How much City Memorabilia do you collect?

I would not say collect, but my dad "acquired" a pendant that I think was the one presented to City by Juve in the 1976 UEFA cup tie on the 29/0976. Not sure if its real but its very good quality, a little singed, but looks the real deal. I have been torn in giving it back to the club if its real and having to explain how I got it or just keeping it, will add a photo if I can figure out how
 
I have a collection of shirts and city books if anybody has Fred Johnson Manchester city book from 1930 then I really need it

Not as much as Tommy Muir, huge collection often displayed years back in the George and dragon.

I used to go in a pub on Hyde Road, just past the old bus depot called the City Gates, in which all the walls were full of photos, signed shirts and loads of gear related to City, it's been closed for years but I don't know what happened to the contents.
 
Don't really collect memorabilia but was going through an old box in my garage containing stuff my mum had been keeping for me the other day and found a cloth patch. It's a bit like the american sergeants chevrons in white with blue stitching where the gold would be.

On it is Manchester City across the top and BOOKS ARMY under the city ship badge - I think I got it when I was about 10 and had it on my jean jacket :)

I was gobsmacked to see it and that I still had it
 
You can get a lot of old shirts off ebay for a few quid sometimes. 1934 FA Cup final prog is on ebay sometimes at ridiculous price (over £1000) Nice if you can afford to spend that amount on a programme.

I think George Heslop took them with him when he went to manage a Pub
on Newton St, in Manchester City Centre. (Cannot recall the name)
I think I remember seeing some of them displayed there, but he didnt last
long. So not idea where they went to after that.

I own programmes for the following cup wins.

FA Cup - 1956, 1969, 2011.
League Cup - 1970, 1976.
Euro CWC - 1970.

Not sure if they had programmes for the 1904 and 1934 cup wins and if they did i bet there are only a handful out there.
