Obscure MemorabiliaAt home my other half has a broken piece of a piano. Just a single hammer from a broken piano. And yet this twisted bit of wood and metal is a piece from the piano that they flung in the TV series Northern Exposure. We've also got some gardening tools from the first series of Big Brother.
What wierd stuff do you own that has a history?

a plectrum as used by John HegleyI saw a reading by bespectacled poet John Hegley, and at the end, he wanted to play a song on his guitar. however, he didn't have a plectrum, and asked if anyone in the audience happened to have one with them. amazingly, I had one in my pocket, so I lent it to him. later on, he signed a book for me, also writing "thanks for the pleccy, speccy", under which I have sellotaped the very plectrum he borrowed.
