Old School Memoribilla

[Guest tank_abbott]

So what's the coolest or rarest wrestling item you own (Bret's sunglasses, Hogan's shirt/bandana?) I've got alot of old magazines from the early 80's/ Videos from the 40's and 50's(copies of obviously)/ Wrestling comic books/ Semi rare Wrestling books (By Daniel Cohen) tons of old WWF/NWA/AWA figures... but my prize possesion is...

 

 

A poster (circa 1984/5ish) of Hulk Hogan wearing a tiny black SPEEDO! I don't know why, but I find a great sense of pride in displaying that poster...

 

No in all seriousness I have a pile of old AWA programs from the 70's which are pretty rare, and I am proud to claim them as my own!

I have three promotional posters for house shows from San Jose. 1/93 TV taping (Bret vs. Bigelow), 10/93 (Taker vs. Yoko), and 5/94 (Bret vs. Owen). I'd like to add to that collection eventually but those things aren't easy to come across.

[Guest papacita]

I've got a pair of Hitman glasses and the Undertaker's foam urn. I've also got just about every WWF Magazine from November 91 to January 2000.

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

I don't know about the rarety of these but I actually have every live event program (match listings included) for every event that I have been to.

[Guest tank_abbott]

Are they souvineir (sp?) glasses, or did Bret hand them to you?

[cawthon777 0]

I bought my pair for $6 in 93. I suppose I could always take a black marker to it and sign it from Bret...

[Guest oldschoolwrestling]

I used to have a 4 Horsemen T-shirt with Flair, Arn, Tully and Lex. Still have my WM8 Hulkamania do-rag.

[Guest snuffbox]

Apter mags from the 70s and early 80s....I sent these to Superstar Billy Graham to help him in writing his autobiography. They were returned with a letter of thanks and a signed pic. Very cool.

 

ECW magazine signed by Jerry Lynn, Bill Alphonso, and Francine at a house show. The RF tape of that show is also one of my fave items.

 

And a signed Greg Valentine pic from when I met him after an indy show.

[Guest MillenniumMan831]

I used to have a great Demolition poster but got rid of it in the mid 1990s when I was kinda off wrestling and reorganizing my room. I'll never live that one down.

 

EDIT --- How could I forget my Coliseum Videos?!? Plus, I think I still have the kid-sized 80s Intercontinental Belt lying around somewhere. Also, I have the orig. Cactus Jack t-shirt that I got at an ECW show. Still wear it to work when I get a chance.

A kid-sized WWF title belt from 1988.

 

The original Cactus Jack t-shirt, not the WWF version (1995).

 

Two WWF figures still in their original packaging (1993).

 

Japanese action figure still in packaging.

 

Programmes from some of the WWF live show I've attended.

 

A huge tape collection, with over 50 original WWF tapes.

 

Some other stuff which isn't as significant.

[Guest dreamer420]

Pretty much just video tapes. All I ever owned was an old school Brutus The Barber Beefcake shirt but it got lost along the way somewhere.

 

And I used to have a collection of LJN WWF wrestlers with the ring and the cage. My dad tossed it away though.

[Guest biggstevie]

i own half a table that sabu hit a Triple Jump Moonsault on.

[Guest WrestlingDeacon]

When we moved into the house we live in now, I found in the basement a framed picture that was a collage of old wrestlers, had to be around the early to mid-80's from the pictures involved. They include, Hulk Hogan, Sgt. Slaughter, Andre the Giant, Greg Valentine, JYD, Piper, Snuka, Big John Studd and the Iron Sheik.

[Guest El Gigante]

I have a bunch of the old Hasburo WWF figures still in their packages.

 

A pair of Bret Hart Wristbands along with the glasses.

 

The foam WWF Intercontinental Title from the early 90s.

 

About 30 or so Coliseum Videos.

 

Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels autographs when they were at a Jamesway in 1994.

 

Thats about all I can think of now.

[Guest Razor Roman]

I have an audio-cassette with all the radio spots for WrestleMania VIII

 

A christmas card (sent to my dad who has the same name as me) that has the old WWF block logo, full of candles, that is signed "To Roman from Hulk"

 

PPV Programs for every PPV from 92 and some from 93.

 

a Hulk Hogan Python Power bandana

 

A complete set of Old School "Classic" WWF trading cards

 

and an autographed picture of Mr. Perfect (signed to Roman, from Mr. Perfect)

 

(My dad used to be vice president of a cable company so I used to get a lot of WWF PPV Hype materials, including posters (which I ruined), advertising artwork, and advanced knowledge of "exciting circumstances at Survivor Series which would lead to another PPV held on Tuesday in Texas)

[Guest mesepher]

I have an original program from ECW's Barely Legal... and another program from another ECW PPV, maybe Hardcore Heaven. - my claim to ECW fame

 

oh, and I have one Bret Hart wristband... and a very very small Hitman shirt... but it still kind of fits... wore it to the first TNN RAW way back when

[LivingLegendGaryColeman 0]

I have all sorts of old toys and books and weird stuff. One I would mention is from Warrior's 96 return, his T-shirt with all of his Warrior wisdom on the back. Even then, I thought what on the back was insane, but I really wanted a shirt of WAH-YIOR! I was at a live event, if I didn't get that, I was going to get Savio Vega... maybe I should've....

 

I have tons of toys from figures to Macho Man squirt heads. I have all the old cards from the side of the ice cream bars, Warrior Coloring Book, I have some old WWE "graphic novel" which had like the Mountie and the Bossman fighting in the Mountains and Bushwhackers and Nasty Boys tricking each other all over town... some pretty weird stuff....
