for the inauguration, I beginning to suspect that maybe 1.5 million of them will be vendors of Barack Obama souvenirs. In fact, Congress may be able to put on hold the release of any further bailout funds. The money changing hands for a keepsake of this event just may be enough to get the nation GDP going north again.
My attention was drawn to this irrepressible entrepreneurial spirit in America by an ad in Sunday New York Times touting the We Can commemorative figurine of President Obama,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a full seven inches tall! It hand numbered. It a limited edition. And it goes without saying that this timeless collectible that you want to hand down to your children children children is NOT AVAILABLE IN STORES ANYWHERE!
What I really liked about the ad from The Hamilton Collection is that the incredibly life-like figurine comes with a 365-day guarantee. I not sure what the guarantee is for; the ad doesn say. Workmanship? If his head falls off within the first year of ownership, you can return it for a refund of your $29.95? How about competence in office? If he turns out to be Barack Obummer within a year, you get to return it for a full refund?
As I suspected,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], merely going to Ebay reveals hundreds of items associated with Obama and the inauguration,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], everything from the typical T-shirts and campaign buttons to earrings and key chains. Of course it be cold on Tuesday with a brisk wind that will chafe those lips. Not to worry,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there special lip balm called Obalm Ah! The lip balm was going for $2.99 a jar, advertised as homemade from olive oil, Vitamin E,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and something called shea butter.
In addition to the various covers of magazines and newspapers declaring Obama victory,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you can also pick up various Spiderman comics featuring the new president on the cover, a not-so-subtle sign that we need a superhero,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not just the first African American president,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to deal with all of our problems.
Watches and commemorative coin sets abound,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. You can get the official Obama dollar bill only $7,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].99 (who said inflation was dead?),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
The most expensive item I saw was two pair of Air Jordan sneakers, custom-made size 10 featuring Obama face on the toes and the word on the sides for a Buy It Now price of $1,100.
While there is an Obama figure going for about $10, it sorta looks like a rubbery Gumby, not very attractive. Joes as a kid,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], including the ones that talked when you pulled their dogtags. Joe. If you did,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it would probably say, we pulling out in a reasonable and orderly fashion in 16 months! Move out! But you can easily find an Obama bobble head doll for $29.95. One news report said they are among the hottest-selling souvenirs in Washington right now,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with one vendor selling 2,000 in a matter of days.
I think my favorite piece of memorabilia that I found on the Internet was not under Obama name,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however. No, by typing in George W. Bush on Ebay, you will find for the low, low price of $1.99 this button:
