AxlRosen suggests this item which was also Boing'd and Fark'd. It's going around!

Photographer Michael Hughes travels all over the world to tourist haunts, buys kitchy souvenirs of local landmarks, and then goes to the actual landmark and photographs it in perspective with the real thing. He's posting an ongoing photoset on Flickr.

A cool idea, an interesting take on perspective and souvenirs and landmarks. It's also reminiscent of the Kids in the Hall's I'm crushing your head bit, for those who remember it.
