Rarities!!

[blackdeathcrew]

My rarest thing is the fullySigned copy of the original Fishing For Luckies

[Glen666]

Oh yeah, forgot to mention original Fishing For Luckies and the tour programme.

I've also got a 2 track promo of Vanilla Radio and Stormy in the North from before they got a record deal again. Its in a DVD case with black cover with just the smiley face and all band members autographs. They were a very limited run that were being sold at a gig in Dudley.

Interested to know if anyone else has one of these and what it might be worth now.

As a US fan, I don't really have that much in the way of rare stuff - just getting the "unrare" stuff is enough work to being with!

The only real rarities I have would be stuff that's signed :

1. "Riff" ( Gearhead version ) poster signed by Ginger/CJ/Stidi/Jon
2. Ginger live shot poster signed by Ginger with personal message
3. Yo-Yo's album cover signed by entire band
4. WH setlist + "Anthem" 7 inch cover signed by Ginger & Danny
5. SG5 concert poster signed/personalized by Ginger
6. Yo-Yo's setlist & signed items
7. SS666 CD signed by Dregen AND Ginger

I tried to post pics of the above, but they didn't come up for some reason.

Fishing for more luckies on vinyl surely must be 1 of the rarer Wildhearts items. I also have a CDR promo copy of WEEKEND dating back to '92 presumably this was going to be a single but never got released.
Has anyone got or seen the TEST PRESS VINYL versions of GREETINGS and TV TAN, 1 was on CLEAR VINYL and 1 was on WHITE VINYL. Not sure which was which though.

Just managed to track down the japanese box-set

Cost me an arm and a leg but worth it!

i'm now after the white vinal version of mondo akimbo..

Anyone got a spare?

I saw that on a website - did you get number 152 by any chance ? Was lookin at that last week, but the price tag put me off... But to say I was tempted is an understatement..

[trevorkian]

Myself an American, I've rounded up a pretty good stash of rarities, but I must say- Fishing for MORE Luckies 12" is certainly the #1 thing on my want list. Does anyone know how many of these made it out? I also know that Landmines and Pantomimes was scheduled to come out on 12" Pic Disc, but apparently never did- any idea if any copies made it out?

Oh, and I suppose my fave pieces would be the most expensive (Mondo CD- $100), and cheapest (Suckerpunch US Promo- $4)

Not sure if this is any help but you can get it here for £75 !!! Sorry but I only paid £6.99 for it when it first came out.

Naievity Play promo

[Glen666]

Some pretty impressive stuff.

Does anyone know what the most rare / most valuable item could be ?

I reckon the most rare is the Pump it Up Promo (with bicycle pump)

and the most valuable is the Moodswings box set.

[jowull]

I've got my christmas 96 fan club letter somewhere, but probably the rarest is the brixton academy split vinyl with suckerpunch on one side and warfair by clawfinger on the other. My favourite however, is the lovebank gatefold vinyl.

what I'm really, really after though - and will never get, is a copy of the nme, melody maker, raw and kerrang, all out in the same week, all with the wildhearts on the cover. It was sometime in 95 I think. Anyone else remember that? Or is it just my mind fucking with me?

I have a fully signed (CJ, Ginger & Stidi) copy of Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed that I won in a Gut Records compo a while back.

And I have a fully signed (CJ, Ginger, Stidi & John Poole) CD, a two track promo in a DVD case of Vanilla Radio and Stormy In The North that I bought from the Whitehaven show. On the spine one of them has written 'Earn a fortune...sell me to a mug on Ebay'!

[Chris Davies]

rarest item , probably my copy of mondo akimbo which i had signed by ginger

tokyo suites me is pretty rare
the original fishing for luckies and for more luckies

all of ebay and all decent prices

[skychaserhigh]

Does anyone know the going rate for a mint moodswingers box-set

[Chris Davies]

for the moodswings box set your probably looking at £100+ , maybe on a lucky day on ebay a bit cheaper but doubt that very much .
