    The yellow and blue one is definitely an octopus. I also see Thomas the Train and a gay pride poster

    A couple of guesses on posters based on this screen shot:

    The second to last one looks like some sort of Octopus (see the tentacles witht he suction cups!) - Maybe for the Boston Shows?

    The last one looks exactly like the head of the Statue of Liberty (the part where her crown is). I bet that is for the MSG shows.

    Yep, these are the artists proofs, signed and numbered to 100.

    Also, remember you are getting a guaranteed poster if you get this set, without having to hold it during the show etc.

    i think the price is fair given the ebay flipping that goes on, etc.

    Um, yes.

    That's the way it has always been.

    Again, the signed and numbered prints are aimed at the collectors.

    Klausen does the same.

    And it's actually about $30 more.

    hate to judge on such little info but it was their choice to release it.

    i have to say they still look like the old unfinished sketches of a 4 year-old we've come to expect from ames.


    Apparently you haven't seen the 98 posters and many since then.

    The Klausen Kenyon Hall was only $60 when he offered it and his art is alot better than Ames.

    Also when you subtract $25 (which was the cost at shows for posters last I knew) from the $70 (someone had said $700 when it was said and done earlier) you get $45.....

    when you subtract that $25 from $63.50 ( $635subscription price without S&H) you still get $38.50 difference .....to each their own but still not worth it to me

    It's easy to grin, When your ship comes in, And you've got the stock market beat. But the man worthwhile, Is the man who can smile, When his shorts are too tight in the seat
