We basically gave away our entire collection at our super massive garage sale before coming here. I carted those things around for close to thirty years; the only one that really pained me to let go was my Stones Sticky Fingers album; complete with working Andy Warhol inspired zipper. I can only hope that the guy that carted away the entire box appreciated the collection, and wrote a blog entry as cool as yours about his amazing find.anaternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3041909395799559244.post-22345372978620474622008-11-15T12:41:00.000+11:002008-11-15T12:41:00.000+11:00Gypsy- I know, it's the best!<BR/><BR/>Rassles- You have an Australian friend?
