As part of the master plan to redevelop certain areas of the core site, we took the ultimate decision in late 2021 to close our highly visited Orphans section and replace it with a portal designed to showcase the various items and collections that some of the “super-fans” have curated over the years.

Designed in collaboration with the Pink Floyd Collectors social media group, A Fleeting Glimpse has been working tirelessly to create the ‘Collectors Hub‘

A collaboration to showcase a glimpse of the various ticket stubs, posters, adverts, promotional displays, t-shirts, and other memorabilia that have been accumulated by fans since the band’s inception in 1964.

With extensive galleries covering almost 60 years, we have very painstakingly organized every piece of material into the relevant categories to make it accessible for you the visitors, to navigate through.

Simply click the image above or the collectors tab from the menu navigation bar.

Unlike our previously launched Tour Book exhibition, this is something that we are sure will have continuous additions due to the sheer amount of items that are available in the public domain.

Throughout the years many people have been involved in our various projects and for the small majority these people often get overlooked, There’s one person in particular that has been a complete asset to our work here at A Fleeting Glimpse and we are delighted to say that she has kindly accepted our invitation to launch the A Fleeting Glimpse – Collectors Hub.

” There are many types of Pink Floyd collector. Some buy every studio, live, compilation and solo album on CD, and then stop there, content with their small but perfectly formed, hi-fidelity shrine. Others take it a step further, and amass a drawer of t-shirts, ranging from Primark crop-tops to authentic 1970s original concert t-shirts they’ve frantically bid on at 3am on eBay.

Then there are the Floyd collectors who devour shelves of books and stacks of magazines, scouring each page for minuscule details that might give them some insight into their elusive heroes. Others wallpaper their house with concert posters old and new. Some arrange ticket stubs of the dozens of gigs they’ve attended in an aesthetically pleasing way. Many fall down the rabbit hole of vinyl, and find themselves staring at a battered Mexican pressing of Dark Side of the Moon in an overpriced record store and thinking to themselves, “Yes, I need another copy of an album I already own 84 copies of, in eight different formats.” That’s part of the sheer joy of being a Pink Floyd collector. It can go as far as you want it to go, in whatever direction you want to take it. It may culminate in a pair of Wish You Were Here socks, or in the Pink Floyd branded VW Golf. It might even end with David Gilmour’s Black Strat hanging on your bedroom wall.

A Fleeting Glimpse is proud to present their ongoing collaboration with Pink Floyd Collectors group. Feast your eyes on a cornucopia of Pink Floyd goodies that will showcase the far reaches of uber-nerd collecting!

Delve deep in to the peculiar and beautiful artifacts that have been amassed for your viewing pleasure! And wonder to yourself, “Whose idea was it to release a promotional Dark Side of the Moon cherry flavored lollipop and where can I buy one? ” – Natalie Lyons (Long Serving AFG Associate)
