Yay - another chance to shoe-horn in my often told story of my signed vinyl copy of Further Complications, 'Annette, You Bet! Love Jarvis xxx'. I'll leave it there this time.

Ha! nice one! (my mum is called Annette, next time she phones me i will say annette, you bet)
That made me think of the line 'and wait for their mothers to finish with lovers, and call them inside for their tea'. Sorry wrong thread, but it's still a good un.
It's a cracker. My most prized Pulp possession is... probably the German copy of Disco 2000 that's mis-pressing. Just because it was such a lovely surprise when I pressed play the first time.
There you go, Sarah has brought it bang back on topic. I also have a copy of the promotional His n Hers book, signed by Pulp (can't remember if it was all of them). I won it in a competition through the old fan club Pulp People, for answering a question about James Bond theme tunes/composers, or summat like that. It's very yellow now.
By the way, it doesn't have to be the most valuable. Mine is a programme with a ticket stub from the Blackpool concert in 1995 on the inside. My friend, Richard Morgan gave it to me as a Christmas present at school in 1996. He is still one of my closest friends.
The fact that it was from my friend makes it valuable to me.

I don't have anything signed or anything like that but I just got an original pressing of the O.U./Space vinyl and O.U. is probably my favourite Pulp song ever so I've never loved a record more in my life

I've got the setlist and Jarvis's handwritten notes from the 1 Sept Brixton concert. It's probably my most treasured possession from my most treasured memory!

Got a signed Further Complications vinyl along with a setlist and sheet of handwritten notes from the Brighton 2009 gig. Also a first pressing of Different Class on vinyl (with the changeable covers and Pulp People card) and the Common People comic.
I had a guitar tab for Misshapes signed by Jarvis... but "had" is the operative word. I either carefully folded it into a hard-back book for safekeeping (and will therefore find it in 20 years or so) or threw it out when redecorating...
Otherwise, I bought my copy of Further Complications from the man himself, who was working on the tills at HMV on Oxford Street one random lunch break.
@kopite83: Did you get the lot off eBay? There was a lot of Jarvis' setlist and stage lyrics on eBay that I considered bidding on for a minute, but I figured my husband would get mad at me if I did (turned out I was wrong, but it was too late).
I think my most treasured Pulp possession is probably the signed vinyl of Different Class (interchangeable covers). Or perhaps my personal photos of them. Found my old Pulp album; how Russell managed to look this good after a sweaty club show is beyond me:
Here's one for Sarah Wilson, Mark looks quite adorable here:
Mine is the cup that had MY cider in it that Jarvis took a swig from and then placed back into my hand whilst I was just in complete awe as were the members of the audience- its not signed but I carried it all the way from Adelaide via Sydney and back to Melbourne....he must of been thirsty.
Memorabilia wise....hmmm The Beat is the Law signed poster by all members of the band is pretty nice and my This is Hardcore signed vinyl by Jarvis is also nice - just cannot make out what the message is.....I'm sure its cryptic.
