Books- Saving Private Ryan:A film by Steven Spielberg This book features cast dialogue and quotes, over 100 illustrations and 130 pictures from the movie, included with info on WW2. I own this book. It's great for a Saving Private Ryan fan, and has a lot of facts on the making of this great movie. I highly recommend this book. Price-$15.96
- Saving Private Ryan:A film by Steven Spielberg Hardcover Price-$27.96
- Saving Private Ryan:A novel The written story of the movie by Max Allen Collins. I own this as well. Most of the dialogue is exactly the same as the movie. It's written very well, but I like the movie more. Price-$5.20
- Now You Know:Reactions after seeing Saving Private Ryan A collection of emails from fans around the world. Price-$11.25
- After the Battle:Spielbergs D-Day Magazine I own this magazine, but I didn't get it off an auction, I got it off this website, where you can order it. The magazine is full with interesting facts. It has a huge section of behind-the-scenes complete with info on their weapons, boot camp, locations of filming w/ maps, vehicles, stunts, and hardware. Price-$19.95
- Battleground-The Making of Saving Private Ryan in Ireland This book is out of print, but you can check out Amazon.com and go to the out of print section. Every once in a while, one shows up. I'm not sure of the price nor of what is included in this book, but I'm assuming it's all behind-the-scenes.

- SPR Banner-This large poster hangs 6 feet in length, and 2 feet in width. On the far left is the traditional picture of Tom Hanks head flanked by Matt Damons, Tom Sizemores, and Edward Burns. In the middle is the silhouette of Matt Damon, and on the far right is the Saving Private Ryan logo. Written across the bottom is "See it tonight. Remember it forever." The picture I have for this one when you click on the link for SPR Banner is not the normal Banner, it's a smaller, shorter version. But you get the idea, right?
- Display Boards-There are two of these cardboard display boards that you will see in movie stores or theaters. I have both of them, and they are very cool to put in your room or apartment or whatever. One stands about 5 feet tall and 5 inches across. It's in a triangular shape with obviously three sides. On the top of each side is a picture from the movie, and written vertically on each side is "Saving Private Ryan." The other is much larger, and stands 5 feet tall and about 2 1/2 feet across. It's 3D and the traditional 4 guys head (tom, tom, matt and ed) are 3D, and the silohuette stands out as well.
- Tom Hanks Head-This is a G.I. Joe head that looks like Tom Hanks. You buy a World War 2 G.I. Joe, take off the head and replace it with Toms, and there you go...your very own Saving Private Ryan action figure!
- Matted Photos-I've seen a bunch of these on auctions. All they are, are matted photos from Saving Private Ryan. A nice gift seeing that they can be framed.
- Battlefield Earth Action Figures-There are two of these, and every Barry Pepper fan needs to own at least one of these. I mean come on, your own personal action figure of Barry...not to mention it's from the "hit" movie, Battlefield Earth. :) Besides, all the stores want to get rid of them so they sell for like $2. Click on the link to see the pictures of the two different ones.
- Mouse Pads-I've seen a Barry Pepper one, Tom Hanks and a Saving Private Ryan one. I have the SPR one, and it's just the SPR poster picture. But I'm sure there are many others out there.
- Pins-Put these on your clothes to show everyone how much you're obsessed with Saving Private Ryan.
- Promotional Ads-These are a sheet of paper about the size of computer paper that are usually priced extremely cheap. They look cool with the logo and picture. You can find your favorite SPR actor and get an ad for them, because I've seen one for every member of the cast including Steven Spielberg and John Williams.
- Signed Posters/photos-I always see these on auctions, and they usually run for a very high price. I've always wanted one, but they are usually 80-100+, so if you see a cheap one that doesn't go up in money, you are very lucky and should probably bid.
- Authentic Costumes- And then there are the really really expensive items like this Wade Costume worn by Giovanni Ribisi in SPR that I found on eBay for $2,100. I don't see why anyone would buy that, but hey, if you've got the money, why not right?
- Helmets-I own this as well, but the quality of the helmet differs because many different companies make these. They are exact replicas of the helmet worn by Tom Hanks in the movie, but like the signed poster/pictures, these run for a high amount of money...usually around fifty dollars plus shipping.
