I was out bike riding and hangin out on the Northside all night, anyway met a close bud of my bud, and he makes these "things" which he then sells.
my new friend also has 2 rooms completely full of Beatles memorabilia, which was pretty impressive to me... then my bud tells me "wait til next time, he's gonna show you the basement".
so anyway I liked what he's working on, so I took some pics. Anyone seen this kind of stuff before?

Friend of mine found what I think was an old Jimi poster at a garage sale...turned out to be worth about $15000.
Especially if that stuff is original and as well cared for as it looks...

I've some of it but not much. I would have loved to have had the full posters of everything Rick Griffin ever did.
I thought that 50 bucks for a Hendrix flying eyeball was insane. It's worth a ton of money now.

ya know I expected to see you in this thread a lot sooner DH...
It's amazing how much some of this memorabilia goes for.
pretty cool stuff, I like looking at it and reminiscing.
