This is a small but eclectic mix of items I've had in storage. Some items I was always (until now) reluctant to sell. Others were too difficult to display well at the record fairs I did across Europe and the U.K. As a result, they were largely forgotten. A few others originally hung in my house in Scotland but are not suited to the one I now have in France.

Please note: due to storage conditions for the last 25 years, there may be some light foxing to edges and margins. This is unavoidable when items were constantly moved to and from fairs and than stored without temperature control.

Elvis Costello & The Attractions Australian Gold Disc for the album, "Armed Forces". The disc was presented by the A.R.I.A. (Australian Record Industry Association) to Steve Hart (a.k.a. Steve Nieve). I bought it in the late 1980's and since then, it's spent most of its time hanging on my wall. Can easily be mailed as it's plexiglass, not glass. Size

Very Rare Fleetwood Mac promotional numbered limited edition print of the artwork for the 1987 album, "Tango In The Night". This is number 38 of a run of only 100.

Extremely Rare Leonard Cohen framed and glazed numbered limited edition print of the artwork for "The Mirror". I bought this at a record fair at Espace Champerret, Paris in early 1995. It was implied at the time that it had been sold by FNAC but that may have been incorrect. Since then, I've never been able to find another for sale. The only mention I can find of it on the internet is here. Size 171mm x 271mm.

The two Stuart Sutcliffe prints below were originally purchased at the time of the first major exhibition recognising his talent. It was held at the Bluecoat Chambers in Liverpool in 1990. Both carry the wording © 1989 STUART 65 Westow Street, Crystal Palace, London, S.E. 19 01-771-1966. I have no details of the limited edition, whether it was of each print or of all the included prints. Strangely, I've also been unable to find these prints anywhere on the web.

Yes Melody Maker Readers Poll Award 1976 for Top International Arrangers. These mirror awards very rarely come onto the market. It features an image of the Patrick Moraz era group above the award category. I bought this around 1988 when I was still doing Scottish record fairs. It came from a dealer based on the Black Isle who was more into beatnik and underground memorabilia and was clearing any prog items he had. As I said in the intro to this page, some items used to hang on my walls and this was one. There are two very small cracks on the bottom edge, pictured in close-up on either side of the main pimage. Unfortunately, it was like this when I got it. Size mm X mm.
