Well, further to my last post which was an overview of my collection, I figured I would do a new post with some specific focus on my new area of “obsession” - collecting the memorabilia from the various Garbage album eras.

There is just something really cool about the memorabilia that Garbage produced - the quirky packaging, funny concepts for items (”paranoid” condom anyone?) and generally just really aesthetically pleasing stuff! I think I would have to say that I have probably spent as much on memorabilia stuff as I would have on actual music formats like CDs, cassettes and vinyl…somewhere in that region at least.

So, I will now post some photos of the memorabilia items in my collection from the 4 major Garbage album eras (not including Absolute Garbage - where there was arse all promotion except for a couple of posters)….and from each of these eras I will try my hardest to pick out my favourite few pieces of memorabilia in my collection from each era :) There is still heaps out there I want too, so will also list the things I am still most interested in obtaining! (Some things are yet t arrive and are not included such as a signed BG lithograph and Bleed Like Me wristbands…I also forgot a couple of things - carrier bags, debut beer mats and my V2.0 calender, V2.0 shirts and promo Australia/NZ V2.0 poster)…
