Memorabilia

I've just seen a Stratocaster pickguard signed by Roger Waters for sale. It's got a certificate of authenticity etc. The seller is asking for offers over £600. 
I know Floyd attract a certain type of fan, but £600!! For a £25 pickguard and a bit of permanent marker? I don't get it. for £600 I'd want a Strat attached to the guard! 

I have a couple of signed things- t-shirts from gigs where I've bumped into the artist etc. 

Who collects this kind of thing? 
Anyone got any cool items of memorabilia?

Does one of Bjork's shoes count?

I'd pay more for a scratchplate that doesn't have Roger Waters' autograph on....

Probably the coolest thing I have is a Comic version of Common People by Pulp, drawn by Jamie Hewlett of Tank Girl/Gorillaz fame. 

As both a massive Pulp fan, and a comic geek, it's one of my favourite possessions. I suspect it's reasonably valuable, there weren't a lot of copies made. That said I'd never sell it.
