The Babes in Toyland Collection is comprised of a print of the album art for Fontanelle and lyrics to "Middle Man."

Babes in Toyland is an American punk rock band formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1987. Original band members included Oregon native Kat Bjelland (lead vocals and guitar), Lori Barbero (drums), and Michelle Leon (bass). Leon was later replaced in 1992 by Maureen Herman. Riot grrrl groups coming out of the Pacific Northwest - including Sleater-Kinney, 7 Year Bitch, and Bikini Kill - have all named Babes in Toyland as a major influence.
