    There's a calculator?  I would be interested if you start selling items individually. 
    It was an Epic No code promo - its one of those very old flat solar powered jobs in a very flimsy cheap plastic wallets. 
    Given my profession as a numbers cruncher, I would be interested in the calculator.  I think I have all the notebooks already.  I never knew there was a binder either.

    Great items and history lesson! Sad to see a great collector move on but exciting to see what may become available. 
    Thanks for the links!  I've had several of those calculators (without the PJ) and they are the cheapest calculators ever made.  Such a strange promo.  

    Has there ever been an official promo pen? 
    I believe it was made by Sony France. To be fair a lot of the promo items are fairly cheap in terms of the product used (a few notable exceptions of course such as the ipod), what i love about it is that it seems to have been made by the manufacturer and not just stickered or stamped.

    I have never seen a pen, you've got me thinking.....fairly sure there hasnt been one, but I bet such things exist at the Tenc

    wow, that would be a tough decision to reach, I'm sure. I agonize over selling one freaking poster, never mind the collection you have hunted down and amassed over the years. well done, Paul. good luck. I hope I can score a signed Winnipeg poster if you have one when/if you decide to sell individual items. But sincerely hope for your own sanity that you can sell as one collection. 
    100% mate, we are perhaps wired up very similarly !!!!

    I cant see it happened so its going to be a fairly lengthly task of compiling categories and individual photos, but who doesnt love a challenge!!

    With a collection this large and all encompassing the next step would have to be lots. Maybe the zippo collection all or none, then posters then vinyl. Sadly I would be priced out of all of these but one lot could save you a bunch of headaches. That vinyl collection alone could probably be broken down by years. Incredible collection!! If there's a spreadsheet, it would probably crash my phone!!
    Definitely open to this, just gotta put the work in now to create a comprehensive schedule of each part

    Holy shit. 

    There has to be a PJ museum or gallery that would buy this from you. Or someone could establish one with this massive of a collection. 
    Best of luck selling!

    Best wishes Paul!  Your collection is top shelf.  I’ll be curious what new pursuits you take on once the PJ collection is unloaded.  Always welcome here with or without the collection.  Cheers!

    Good luck on a new passion.  Maybe the band would be interested for the museum?

    You should connect with Paul about his collection. It’s legendary. Would love to see a feature about it & Paul in DEEP. I’d love to see a digital museum worked into the site. One that is fan driven, not what’s already been done (which was amazing at PJ20 by the way!). 
    They already have an archivist and most likely already have this stuff in their archives. Plus ten times more. 
    I know they do, but I doubt that person collected niche Epic/Sony releases. I think their job if I remember right was more materials from shows, and touring life, not every single known release of the 'Daughter' 45. Fuck, maybe I'm wrong, but it would be amazing if we could instigate a connection to the band for Paul to have that discussion. Kevin Shuss is the dude right? What's his board handle? How do we reach him?

    Was Paul's request sleeping by myself, just breathe or future days?

    Amazing collection. I live in the UK. If there was a Pearl Jam exhibition here I would be there all the time. It would be great if the 10c community could contribute and hire some space and exhibit this all before it's probably split up although as a business it probably wouldn't work long term. It does make you think. I only collect records and have been for 30 years and just don't collect the other stuff. Even with just records I'm losing the thrill quite a bit and that's not just Pearl Jam. I look at it all and think how am I ever going to free myself from this.
