Wow, thanks everybody for posting your treasures. My favorite pieces of my collection are the shows I collected. Back in the day, you couldn't log onto the computer and download any show you wanted, and I can vividly remember the rush I would get finding something new.

Do any of our new members have any Randy items that they would like to share or talk about.My collection is getting to the stage of what else would i like to buy next i'd love to have all the magazines that RR featured in up to present day.But i think that is a very long shot,i've got some cool mags and books.When i get some spare time i'm going to take a few photos of my whole collection and post them up to show you.Alot of the items are tour memorabilia i.e posters,photos,ticket stubs,passes,tour programmes etc..But if you have anything of interest please post it up.

I've just getting this item in the post this morning.Its a Guest Act pass from the USA 1982 Diary of a Madman tour.Its from the 6th March Boutwell Auditorium Birmingham Al concert and its signed by 3 members of UFO Phil Mogg,Pete Way and Paul Raymond.It's a pity its not signed by Randy but never mind its a nice little piece for my collection..

My favourite bit of Randy Memorabilia, is the letters from Delores, Kathy, Frank and Gina!

Because, Without Randy, I wouldnt have met Frank and Gina, and I wouldn't have had the opptunity to have my poem presented to such a wonderful family. The photographs I look at now and again smiling seeing how in Randy's name we all became friends, we have been brought together! :) The letters from the Rhoads clan make me smile and made me feel like i make a difference, and the letter from Frank just makes me laugh "I can imagine you spinning & twirling while you wait for this letter ha ha!" the business cards make me smile and of course Gina's wonderful card with the photographs, i actually felt like I was there and one day I will be there and I want to see Gina and Frank :)

Nice collectible Frank did you get this from Randy when it first became available.I know you have the postcard from Randy which has his signature at the bottom but do you have any other items signed by him ? Did you ever find those picks you said you had ? If you do Frank post them up please ... :wink:
