Revolutionary Memorabilia

Revolutionary Memorabilia - What is to be done?

I was wondering what you fine folks thought of collecting revolutionary kitsch. I mean, I have a comrade who has a CNT card from the Spanish Civil War, and I know more than a few Wobblies who have shelled out their $40 for a real IWW screwback from the 1920s/1930s. I myself have some signed first editions: of Rudolf Rocker and G.P. Maximoff (yeah, the one where the call him P.G. on the leaf), and some original IWW articles from the 'teens. Some Kropotkin 1st Editions in Yiddish... A host of other stuff; mainly books.

So this is part question, part list. What of these collections (and I think many of us have them in some respect), and what is yours?

Please share,

Best,

6,35 of these would be a great memorabilia. But the money that is asked for it can arm a group of five...
