Morrissey Shrine - eBay item #3748734223

This is a 100% unique item. It's a wooden box with hinges. It's nice and aged. It reads "Holy Bible" on the front so I can only assume it was used to store a bible in. Upon opening it it's a tiny Morrissey shrine. Jesus is collaged on one side with Moz on the other. It's a totaly unique piece with a little american, folk art feel. Looks good with a bunch of votive candles in front of it.

  • Give me a break. A photo of Moz, framed, yes = beautiful.
    But a photo in a shrine opposite christ? THis just gives people fodder to further make fun of and stereotype Morrissey fans. If Moz saw this himself, I bet he'd throw up. THink about it.

    Whether you believe in christ or not, it's just plain weird. What next, a chewed piece of gum on ebay, just like britney spears?

  • I hope the person who made this is going to launch a "Morrissey Teasmade" range along the lines of; http://www.teasmade.net/ because that is the sort of thing I would like to wake up to / fall asleep next to each day.

    Actually the Christian debt management company (www.christiandebthelpers.com) that spammed me recently might also consider launching a Morrissey themed debt management service.

    Who could resist the charms of such corporate crapola?

  • Thankfully, Morrissey has forgiven Jesus. Had he not already done so, some awkward moments would have been inevitable in such close quarters.

  • Dear Jim,

    That's wonderful! Can we get a few of those for our next tours?

  • So now morrissey-solo has become a place to announce our eBay auctions? Sad.

  • The absurdity of that item is only outweighed by the desperate gall to place it for sale.

    Gosh that is silly

    Here in Mexico we're used to see this kind of shrines and ex-votos and some other really tacky, kistchy genuine pieces of "art".

    truth rest your head there is more than a life at stake here..she may well sell sanctuary but she'll also sell your soul
  • personally i find this offensive, i don't think we should be associating morrissey with the son of god. he's only a pop singer.
