An oil painting of Prince that a co-worker gave to me a few years ago for Christmas. She took a picture of Prince to an artist in the mall that paints portraits. It's the picture of Prince from the inside of the "Batman" album.....Prince's face in the dark. The artist did a great job.

I guess the rarest is the cd of 1999 without DMSR.

a couple of obscure-ish bootleg vinyl albums. Dunno how much they're worth, probably not much

At the "Jam Of The Year" tour back in 1997, some crazy bitch on the front row threw her bra up on the stage. Prince reached down, picked it up, and threw it out into the audience. It landed on a chair in the third row which was in front of me in the fourth row. I picked it up, and like a fool, I swung it in the air all night long instead of hiding it.

That damn girl came to me afterwards and begged for her bra back because "Prince touched it". I said "You gave it up when you threw it on the stage. I know Prince touched it, that's why I want it." She begged and begged and then people around me were going "Aw come on, let her have her bra back." Like a fool, I gave it back. When I think back, me and her should have been scrapping over it on the floor.

Don't think I've got anything rare or particularly special in comparison to you guys. I have got a symbol album in like the gold case with a purple symbol on it though, oh and a rock comic thing with him in

I have a sex symbol, a metal one, the symbol as it was before he added the squiggle. Got it free when I bought Grafitti Bridge the day it was released.

I also have a copy of Purple Rain the Movie it it's original WB vhs Box.

Some rare vinyl too, casette singles in long boxes, things like that.

Now this story is gold. I can't top that.

I remember there being a thread similar to this a few months ago, but I'll answer again anyway:

-In high school my friend gave me a purple sweat towel with a gold symbol on it. He said his dad gave it to him and he didn't want it.

-I have a small jar of honey that is a favor from the Batman era--it has a black and gold label on it that says "Scandalous Sex Suite: Prince featuring Kim Basinger." I haven't dared to ever open it,since it was nearly ten years old when I got it.

-A room key from the Rio during 3121 that has Prince's likeness on it.

-Original promo posters from "Parade" and "Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic."

On a sadder note, one of my friends had a 7-inch Soft and Wet Record that Prince autographed when he did a promotional tour for the song....and somebody stole it when she had a house party. It hurt me just to hear this.

I would have killed for that one. I have an autographed Luther Vandross album and 45s autographed by Angela Bofill and Kim Fields. I have them hidden deep in my stack of records so no one could find them. Hell, it even takes me a while to find them. If I had a record autographed by Prince though, I would have it locked up somewhere under lock and key.

I didn't think so

She was young (this back in 79/80) and like all young people we sometimes put our most precious things on display to taunt others.

I don't think she would do that now.

SquirrelMeat said:

What track would that be?

interactiveplayer said:

NO

That bit was left out on purpose!

Simply because I don't want to give anything away and get the person that gave it to me into trouble. Part of the deal was I promised not to sell it, promote it or copy it.

Its not the big reel pre-mixed tape by the way, its the more throwaway solid metal studio cassette tape.

omg sounds like a great collection!!! congrats.

if u die, can i have something? jkjk---- totally did not mean it in the way it sounded. i don't want anyone to die.

i do, however, want something from your collection.

My ex-girlfriend gave me her brother's Prince T-shirt from the "Purple Rain" tour. It's a purplish pink color now, but it still kicks ass.

Oh yeah, and remember when I told y'all about that DVD of the rehearsal show at First Ave. during the Parade Tour that I saw?

What size shoe does he wear?
