Collecting Beatles Memorabilia!
-
So......do you collect any type of Beatles memorabilia?
If so, when did you start?? ...and what do you collect?? -
i collect cause i love them.(like most of us)
my stuff mainly just merchandise old and new. i'd say i started around six years ago when i started to get into them. -
hi peacefrog!
...yeah i kinda stated that wrong cuz i also collect them cuz I LOVE THEM too! ...just like everyone else! yeah my stuff is old and new also. ..and i think i've been collecting them for about 9-10 years now. i think i first started with 45s and LPs...and then it went on from there...and forget about ebay!!!...i couldn't believe everything that was out there!!! 
...i tried getting anything i could get my hands on! ...there was no end to it and there still isn't! -
I did start collecting long time ago. I do collecting mainly cd-dvd's. I don't do the memorablia's like dolls. I don't have an original signature, and I don't need that also. I'm very happy of what I"ve got.
I love the Beatles music......... -

Basically, I have CD's, LP's, DVD's of the Beatles, their solo careers, and of Wings. I have quite a few pieces of Beatles-related clothing. and I have tons of books and chord books. I have the Beatles Yellow Submarine action figures (I take the Paul EVERYWHERE--he is my travelling buddy!) I have pins, buttons, keychains and stickers--really anything cool I can get my hands on. Also, the guitars that I own and play were chosen because of the Beatles- I have a Fender sunburst strat (like McCartney plays, only with a light neck instead of a dark one) and I have an Epiphone Texan, a 1979 model. Which I chose because Paul plays a '64 Epiphone Texan and played it on YESTERDAY && JENNY WREN, and also played it on the Ed Sullivan Show.

that's great euan
...yes there's nothing like a room covered with beatles posters! ...oh with respect to your posters...if you can, and you want to preserve the quality, and if you haven't already done so, you should place them in poster frames. -

now this is an awesome set of lithographs hand-signed by george harrison....they are getting harder and harder to find...i'm glad i was able to get the one entitled "piggies"
GO HERE i was wondering if anyone has any of these? -
my dream is to obtain The Beatles' autographs. i got a tonne of posters from ebay and lots of instruments inspired by them. books, dvds, and clothes.
-
hi Tim...dreams can come true.
.all you need to do is save money to snatch one up and then another and another...and before long you'll have a set!!... ..i would also love to get a set of all four...but right now i have to settle for each one on separate pieces of paper ...cuz a set of 4 is really expensive! ..that's a nice collection you have!...and i just love wearing my beatles clothes...i wear my beatles jacket all the time. -
when I became obsessed as soon as I saw Beatles related things I would go for it within reason.One guy at a shop I go to knows me by name as a result and he knows all my family now.He helped advice my aunt on what I didnt have

For anyone who has not read the COLLECTING MACA thread. I collect autographs, Beatles and their solo signatures, I do have a Butcher cover unpeeled and a few other bits and bobs. I am not going to post my autographs in here but please feel free to take a look, any comments or questions are welcome

Actually, YEAHH! I do play their music (or rather, TRY to) I really enjoy playing stuff like the guitar riffs to "Day Tripper" and "Paperback Writer". Also, the chords to most of their songs are WONDERFUL to play. I especially enjoy things like "Julia", "Blackbird", "Let It Be" and such. I also play some of their solo stuff. "Calico Skies" is my all-time favorite song by any artist, and I have just learned it on guitar
cool that you play everything on the keyboards by the way! And I will upload some pics of my guitars, if you'd like to see them -
Hello ((Jo)) I started when I was 18, I started collecting records at first.
albums on the original Capital label, then 45 both records and picture sleeves, and branching out to toys, including a Flip Your Wig Game, and the Remco Dolls. Let it Be movie poster, Butcher Cover,(peeled mono) John Lennon commerative Gold Disc's of Imagine and Give Peace a Chance. Also CD's, DVD's also some of the Yellow Submarine stuff that came out in the late 90's I also have a collection of lunch boxes, that came out, in 2000 that represent each of the Beatles album covers. Oh Yes, I lot of Beatle related books. Collecting Beatle stuff is fun. -
I collect everything I can get my hands on!
I am kinda proud of the Beatles road signs I've collected: Beatles Boulevard Abbey Road Beatles Fans Parking and my personal favorite of the bunch: Paul McCartney Drive Unfortunately the store I was buying these from closed down before I could buy Ringo Starr Parkway, George Harrison Way, and John Lennon Avenue. 
Ah well, there's always eBay! -
