This is a question My most treasured possession

What's your most treasured possession? What would you rescue from a fire (be it for sentimental or purely financial reasons)?

My Great-Uncle left me his visitors book which along with boring people like the Queen and Harold Wilson has Spike Milligan's signature in it. It's all loopy.

Either that or my Grandfather's swords.

I have a few.
A Teddy Bear called Oswald which was bought for me by my Godfather and his wife when i was born and he has been in my room since I was a baby. Sadly my Godfather died last year, so it holds more significance now than ever. Especially after finding out about his life at his funeral. It turned out that he used to work for the Secret Services during the Cold War, intercepting calls and messages and such and was fluent in Russian. Something I had never known in 22 years of knowing the man.

Second is another stuffed toy, Sully from Monsters Inc. It was the first present I got from my ex girlfriend, the only woman I have ever loved and still love with all my heart. I sleep with it on my bed every night.

Third is probably my Antoria Folk guitar. I had been playing the guitar for quite a while and had never played a guitar that really felt my own. Then I met a fella who I started a band with and played this guitar he had. I was home. It sounds like a weird thing, but any guitarists out there will know what I mean. I was talking to him about how much I loved it and he said that I could have it. He wouldnt even take any money from me for it because I loved it so much :)

The last treasured possesion of mine is my music collection. But in particular my Vinyl collection. It is made up of 1000's of records that I have collected over the years, but mainly is made up of my Dad's vinyl collection that he gave to me when I was 13. My dad was a huge music fan in the late 60's and 70's and spent every penny he had on records, so I have some of the most amazing records on original pressing including the complete Beach Boys and Who discographys until CD's started taking over. It is like a goldmine of memories and I would be genuinely heart broken if anything were to ever happen to it.

That's all....

Misunderstanding
From the first sentence going into the second, I was sure you were talking about the bear!
