I was wondering how many singles and things like that you guys own or concert tickets or maybe like just a piece of paper Jarvis or the band signed. I've only been listening to Pulp for a year and a half and I was really young when they were at the height of their fame but I've gathered up a decent amount in the time I've been listening to them:
just wondering if you guys would be willing to share what you've collected. I think it's sort of fun to collect singles, though older stuff is so hard to find.
I know someone on here posted their collection magazines featuring Pulp and Jarvis but I wasn't sure if there's been a thread for just Pulp things in general

I've never felt the compulsion to collect music releases on all formats but I do have a fairly large collection of music papers, magazines and ephemera, that's more my cup of tea. I'll take a photo of some of it at some point.
No pics since most of this stuff is on the other side of the country, but... Different Class LP (changeable covers) Different Class CD Different Class CD (changeable covers) This Is Hardcore 2xCD (the recent reissue) This Is Hardcore LP (also the reissue) We Love Life LP Common People comic Ultimate Live DVD Sex Appeal (bootleg CD) Help the Aged/Tomorrow Never Lies 7" (juke box record) A Little Soul/Cocaine Socialism 7" (juke box record) This Is Hardcore/Ladies Man 7" (juke box record) Mis-Shapes/Sorted for E's & Wizz 7" (juke box record)
Solo/side: Jarvis LP Further Complications LP (signed) Fat Kid 7" Don't Let Him Waste Your Time/Big Stuff 7" Don't Let Him Waste Your Time/One Man Show 7" Brighton Dome 2009 setlist Brighton Dome 2009 notes Further Complications shirt Relaxed Muscle - The Heavy 7" Mother, Brother, Lover
my stuff is all over the flat, so no picture, got a few signed bits and bobs, and i think all their singles now.
and here's me, with my lighthouse single - check the classy can of strongbow. this was taken the day i got it, i went out to celebrate! i don't actually drink THAT much, it may seem like i do with my drunken posts
Weener - I remember I managed to get the My Lighthouse single and Everybody's Problem both together in one go in a small record shop at the bottom if my road. Had been searching all over for them and they just happened to be right under my nose. Asked the guy if he happened to have any rare Pulp items and he pulled them both out!
weener I think has an excellent collection of pulp goodies. just about to head off to IKEA but when I return will drag all my stuff out and take a photo....going to need the widelens I think...... :)
back from IKEA...I actually got a giant picture frame to put in my This is Hardcore tour poster...its now in the loungeroom ready to greet everyone who pops by.
Heres some of my stuff. I have posted a picture of my mags collection, but I forgot the Hits DVD and pulp LIVE AND The Beat is the Law stuff and the posters I have. When you get all their stuff, visually such an amazing band.
and thats a homemade poster I made when I worked at a place with a wide format printer....those were the days..... :P
I dont really have anything totally difficult to get, a few signed items like the Jarvis books, a This is Hardcore 12" and Sisters CD EP signed by Jarvis, a 7 signed by Steve, oh I guess The Beat is the Law signed poster - thats a good'un. My fav bit is actually probably the poster I just got a frame for. Its A2 size and they were printed on amazing paper, abit tactile.... like the band I guess. Music wise, I like my Sisters EP 12" a whole lot. It came with a print of the band which is lovely.
Wow- I feel slightly inadequate after having seen that. I like your homemade poster, it's really good (though I do feel sorry for Nick who's blocked by Jarvis' arm!)

I thought Nick was coyly peeping out from behind Jarvis arm.
Thankyou - I scanned in the inside cover from the Pulp Hits DVD @ 1200 dpi and then printed it out about A2 size. I like it lots, I've moved house twice since making it and it has been the first thing that has gone up on my new walls....
I liked the Sturdy book there, and for some reason (possibly just returning after several drinks at my brother's birthday) thought this was an appropriate place to mention Mark's book is currently (and has for several years now!) residing beside my toilet, and is well thumbed.
As you were!
Ahh, I'm going to regret posting this so much very soon.
(I already regret this)

i got a couple of pulp treats for my birthday. my friend has interviewed jarvis a few times - 1st time in 86. his friend took some pictures in the garden. he's been waiting a few years till a big birthday to give it to me!
and another pal knows his 6 music producer. he accosted the producer in the corridor and got me a signed cd. you can't really see but it says GOOD GRIEF love jarvis
I don't really have much Pulp stuff at all- a couple of records, but that's it, which is mainly cause I put most of my time and money into finding rare Belle and Sebastian stuff. The Pulp stuff i've been the most bothered about has always been digital rather than physical- rare bootlegs, studio recordings and videos.
