Lots of UA linen from gift bottles of wine at the end of transpacs, and several sets of UA stemware used for bubbly, a set of toy cargo bins and jeep bearing UA logos, a toy UA 747 (with blended wingtips, yet!) that I love to place on my top shelf in rotated position for all to see and as soon as I have a confirmed res on another itin
But the one that has actually paid me to wear when overnighting at a crew hotel, is my United Ramp Service jacket: I'm offered a huge discount on room rates

I have an E+ pen (no ink left) and a 1K picture frame - the 1K is embossed on the leather stand.

I've got a snow globe from the HKG-LAX service (attempt #2) commemoration. It also came with a luggage tag.

I have a 100,000 mile club plaque that once belonged to a Harold Friedman, a c.1949 UAL blanket, Shuttle by United plastic bags and coffee cups, a c.1990 mechanics jacket as well as pretty much every United poster from 1950-1979. You can stick an ugly globe on the tail of the plane but at least United will always be United.

I have several plastic united tulips which would of been glued to the wall behind a ticket counter; misc flight manuals; about 1000 ticket jackets; a keychain; and a beautifully framed 20x30 picture of N777UA in old colours I bought off ebay, which was overnighted to me for free using a United account 
I have a bunch of other stuff; I should inventory it.
