Those crazy kids over at Beliefnet have compiled a gallery of kitschy must-haves for the pope’s upcoming U.S. visit. There’s the pope on a rope, talking John Paul II doll (OK, I admit, I already have that one) and the “I Love My German Shepherd” mugs.
Jacqui Salmon over at the Washington Post has also surveyed the papal merchandise scene (at least for the DC leg of the trip) and says there’s good to stuff to be had at the National Shrine gift shop. Needless to say, I’m headed over there on Saturday to scoop up some goodies before the hordes descend.
