stephbgIt's not uncommon in this day and age to find many objects emblazoned with one's name.
Fortunately cheap printing and production methods have kept pace with the rise of the unusual child's name. Shoshona and Eponee Ray may still have their own clocks, books and shoes.
As a child I had a ceramic "Stephanie sleeps here" plaque hanging on my bedroom door. Even the cat scored a folk art wooden shingle stating "Jessica sleeps here".
My favourite piece of personalised Stuff features not my name, but "Igor" hand painted on a German mug. Its value to me lies in the the fact it is *not* a novelty item: there are enough actual Igors to support the market.
Wot u got?
