Recommendations
Reviews
- Bought my copy a few weeks before Terry's death for £15. As mint a copy as you can get. Fully autographed. The poster & merch list are perfect. An absolute bargain.
- Edited 8 years agoAnyone else got the giant boyband poster in their's with the funboys perched on barstools inside giant glitter stars, resplendent in sweat pants, PE vests, white socks and mocassins?
