Not in the same league as others posted here, but we have a NMFC blanket from when my daughter was born (around 11 years ago) that the kids fight over when we go to the footy. My asking for it tonight, to take a pic, caused a small dust up as they again fought over possession (hence no pic). Still made me smile.
 
Yes, I also got my poster courtesy of the lovely TOD. I've also got the above tshirt, the royal blue "Keep North South" version, a Roosistence trucker cap and the legendary "Stick The Gold Coast Where The Sun Don't Shine" sticker.

It'd be fair to say that I'd had quite a few beers by the time I hit the merch table at the Roosistence gig. All in support of a most worthy cause.

PS - Nice poosay, Mrs Slocum.

I still have that sticker on my fridge! 😄

My 2 most treasured are lost forever.
1 was the original Nike media polo. It was a weird blue colour with the NZI Kangaroos embroidered on one chest and the Nike logo on the other. It was a thing of beauty and they ditched them after a year. NFI where I lost that.

More devastating, though not as "treasured", I had 2 membership cards from the "2002 Captains Club" membership category. Due to some circumstances I can't quite recall, the captaincy changed during the pre-season that year, and having both cards was a quirky possession I loved having. But I lost it in a move. I think I put it into a book for safekeeping and then donated a whole bunch of books to the Salvos when we moved. It was a year before I realised 😭

I had that beautiful polo shirt too.

I wore it proudly so many times that it was a much faded rag of a thing by the end so I assume I chucked it out but I can’t really remember.

Yep it sucks to lose or not know where treasured items are.

It's not the monetary value it's the sentimental to me.

I just did it thanks.
No regrets. Had the 99 one laminated in garage on the fridge.. Had to order the others.
Way better framed and hung up.

Look bloody amazing ! Mine are from back in day and have yellowed due to age but the fresh copies look tops. Enjoy, hopefully we have to make room for another one in a few years.

They look fantastic. Did you just buy frames from a store or do they have to be made to fit?
