New Berkshire Hathaway Shareholders’ Weekend Memorabilia

Tuesday, April 12th, 2011

The 2011 Berkshire Hathaway memorabilia has been unveiled, and you’ll want to get your hands on some before you set foot in Omaha! Since the theme of this year’s annual meeting is “Planes, Trains and Automobiles,” the great staff at Borsheims selected the perfect pieces of memorabilia to complement the theme.

For instance, traveling by plane? Don’t use the nasty old neck pillow and blanket that everyone on the hundreds of flights before you has used. Carry your very own travel pillow and blanket, emblazoned with the BRK logo! The blanket actually comes inside the pillow, and then you can inflate the pillow when you take the blanket out. How convenient is that!?! And I touched this set while I was photographing it. It’s cozy. It made me want to curl up right on the sales floor in Borsheims for a nap. It’s $45 and can be purchased here, now!

I haven’t traveled by train in a while, but the last time I did you could bring your own water (a definite perk over air travel!). No one will look sportier on the train than you if you’re carrying this Warren and Charlie Travel Mug. Fill it with water, tea, Coca Cola, or whatever beverage warms your heart (within security regulations, of course!). This mug will keep hot things hot and cold things cold. In addition to the photo of Warren and Charlie on the front, it also has the names of each of the Berkshire Hathaway companies exhibiting at the Qwest Center during the 2011 Berkshire Hathaway shareholders’ meeting. Buy it here for $15.

Driving to the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting? Keep track of your keys on this Berkshire Hathaway stock certificate key chain. This sterling silver key ring was custom made to look like a Berkshire Hathaway stock certificate. It will dress up any set of keys so much, no one will be able to tell if you’re driving an old beater or the newest model right off the showroom floor. The BRK Key Ring costs $99 and can be purchased here.

For the few shareholders who live within walking distance of us, we have you covered. Literally! This Berkshire Hathaway umbrella will keep you dry. And since you live here, you know that it can rain at a moment’s notice. Keep this umbrella handy and impress your friends with your preparedness and stylishness! Buy it now here for $25.

Of course, all of the Berkshire Hathaway memorabilia will be available during the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders’ weekend. You can visit the booth set up at the entrance to Borsheims Friday and Sunday, or visit our booth in the exhibit hall of the Qwest Center on Saturday. But a word of warning… some of the popular items last year sold out on Friday. So if there’s something you really want, grab it Friday. Or grab it now and browse the selection at www.borsheims.com.

Hello Berkshire Fans,

During the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholder’s Meeting weekend, April 30th-May 1st, there will be many things to do and to see and to buy. We want you to remember your time with us in Omaha forever. One way to commemorate this exciting event is with 2010 collectors memorabilia. Of course, while you are here with us in Omaha, you will have a chance to check out all the pieces first hand.

Some of the new pieces that you might see this year include: a Magic 8 Ball, a Berkshire Blanket, an umbrella, Berkshire playing cards, a wine stopper, a ball cap, a Parker roller ball pen, a new Berkshire Radko ornament, a Berkshire Rubiks Cube, new men’s and lady’s watches and a Berkshire USB memory drive.
