Most treasured bits of City memorabilia

Mine is some fluff from the hair of Rio Ferdinand...given to my by Nic Anelka after he had accumulated it after having Rio in his pocket everytime he played against him!
 
apart from my programme collection dating back to the 60's.
nicky weavers gloves when i was mascot.
richard edgilles shirt when i was mascot. 9signed by the team that day) vs chester city away in the fa cup.
seat from maine road.
a couple of signed balls.
 
I was given one of the cast iron metal balls that were on the crush barriers in the old Kippax. Friends cousin was the company boss of the demolition company, and he gave me the ball - still had a bit of blue paint on it. My mate is also a blue and was just gutted - what the f*** you giving it him for!! haha

Keep mean to dig it out and get it mounted on a plinth or something.

I treasure all my City stuff, books, programmes (over 4 large container boxes of them), Magazines from issue 1 up to 2004 then I stopped buying it, DVD's, video's (both official and unofficial), all my 70+ shirts, but some notable items are 1970 ECWC Final prog v Gornik, seat from Maine Road, JD Sports Family stand/Platt Lane, matchworn Jeff Whitley l/s 99/00 away shirt, Richard Edghill home l/s shirt worn v Chelsea May 2001, plus every home ticket from Maine Road 1995-2003 including last Rag Derby and last league game v Southampton.
 
about 130 home / away ticket stubs from various matches in 3 big frames on the lounge wall. quite subtle, it's amazing how many people think it's just some arty 'shit'! every ticket tells a story... 'big' teams 'little' teams, league, cups, europe, home, away, pissed, sober, maine road, coms, night, day, televised, trouble, no trouble testamonials, friendlies, on my own, with my dad, with my brother, with my wife, with my son. boring to most, memorable to me. memories!!
 
Amongst other things I have three banners that used to hang on the other side of the advertising hoardings (the side the fans could see) at Maine Road. Two have 'Super Kev, Super Kevin Keegan' written across them and the other has 'The Best Fans In The Land And All The World' on it.

Vladamir Weiss took a dump on my toilet if that counts

Doesn't count unless yout kept said 'dump', otherwise it doesn't qualify as memorabilia, does it?
 
An old unwashed blue, white and maroon scarf my mum bought me in the late 60's and which saw many trophies being lifted above heads with me in attendance.

It has been in retirement for a few decades, but it may be coming out soon!

Should I tie it around my wrist?
 
I've got the inflatable Manchester Evening News ring that they used to hang on the goals at the North Stand and do "kick for cash" at half-time. I've also got the banner that the team walked out with against Chelsea that said "Best fans in the land and all the world". Also Got a first day cover edition stamp from the 5-1 Derby.
 
The original thread has gone.

I didn't want to start another thread, so I Goggled this thread.
