Holy Grail of PJ Posters.....

any NBA fans around here? this question pops up alot here and i always thought an interesting way to "answer" this question would be similar to bill simmons annual article about nba players and trade value. he compiles a list of the top 50 nba players and ranks them based on salary, age, upside, intangibles, etc. so say he ranks kyrie irving at 13. you wouldn't trade kyrie for any player listed at 14-50, but any player ranked lowered than kyrie, a sit down discussion for a potential trade would definitely occur. it'd be fun and interesting to see a similar list of pearl jam posters. simmons is a PJ fan, maybe someone could ask him to?

Many here mention that the emek Charlotte or Chicago 2000 are the holy grails. But say you own the Chicago 2000 print. Is there any print out there that you would trade your Chicago 2000 for? Or at least make u think about trading it? If someone offered you emek Charlotte, would you take it? Or if you had emek Charlotte and someone offered you Chicago 2000, would you pull the trigger?

I have cleveland 98 framed (2nd show I've ever been to) - a lot of sentimental value. But if someone offered me emek Santa Barbara for a straight up trade, I'd probably make the trade.

Someone should ask Bill. I'd be interested in that. I'm sure you can come up with a list frankbaur.

I don't have the time or effort to go through my tubes. I recognize by sight. Not dates or location.

Show me what you seek. I may have it? I'm not giving my


away..

but other than that

for rarity, there were only 25 of the foil Edmonton 2011, all S/N by artist, it would be hard to imagine a shorter run than that, but of course I could be wrong

I was lucky enough to score a foil Edmonton at the show! It was like pulling a Golden ticket to the Wonka's Chocolate factory!

I really like Kozik. I got to see his store in San Fran. I have a bunch of his little smoking toys.

But it's not my style. the one by Maxx is the type that talks to me. I guess posters whisper ...

"Hey you!.... buy me already... Yes you... I'd be so pretty on your wall.. Do IT!!!"

That is weird I have most of the action figures that most of the PJ poster artists create.. I never realized.

I guess I like art.




I keep smokey in my closet. I have labbits as cousins...


Smokey is unfiltered. I couldn't find the filtered. He's that punk! He's old and I made him give up smoking, even though he is a cigarette. Sets a bad example to other Koziks. I have a banana that won't stop smoking.

Youve lost me entirely.

But the stuff pictured here looks great. Love the Uke, any chance of some close ups?

Yeah id add the Chicago 2000 poster too.

but it depends on why the question was posed?

was it desirability or rarity?

as i think these are very very different. The Santa Barbara that has been talked about already appears to be an in demand print because firstly its Emek and there were not many made, but its sure as hell not one of the finer looking prints imo. In fact I prefer the one they used at the show instead and that can be bought very easily for $50

OMG, I have just lost all respect for your eyes ability to judge posters.

A rhino and a few birds don't evn come closr to Emeks SB poster.

im sorry man, that print just does nothing for me at all.

Apart from the Harper tree print, EMek has never really wowed me, like Kozik i think its just not for me. I admire his ability and his insane detail in his prints, the man is clearly one of the very best but i dont have much love for his stuff as finished pieces.

I wanted this so bad. I never had a chance. And I was so blessed someone just mailed it to me.



It's not the same as the image. I need to frame mine.

I have posters I could give no thoughts about. This one made me crazy.


My first poster was small. It was some band members in a race car. I can't find the image.
I remember who stole/took it from my house or off my wall when I wasn't home. He should be very nervous If I see him ever again.

That is straight and plain Wrong! Karma... hopefully.

Hey, there's my poster again!

Cleveland 1994 by Derek Hess is My personal Holy Grail.




These 2 could also be considered my HGs if we are allowed to have more than one.

Unfortunately a poster wasn't created for my 1st show, '96 Toronto.

Can we discuss fantasy holy grails here?

It's on the framed thread. I think it's page 306. Thanks everyone for compliments.

iisee

Great thread. So...does anyone have a spare Emek 96-Charlotte original that they want to get rid of? I know, AS IF, but that one is my holy grail and I only have a copy? Anybody serious with a non-scalper price in mind please PM me....

Long shot I know but had to ask after seeing all the great pics! Thanks! 8-)

LOVE IT :ugeek:

I WILL have it one day. (I still have the ticket...waiting to eventually do what you did)

If I could go back in time, I would purchase the Hartford 96 and 98 posters

Mine is


I won tickets to this show on the morning of the show. Had to call in sick to work and go to station to pick up tickets before 10:00. Terrible seats, last row in upper bowl....but dead center. Didn't complain at all.

I've never seen this poster for sale anywhere.

It looks as though you're after the '98 East Lansing poster, correct?

It has been listed on eBay multiple times over the years, and a few sellers are offering it up for sale on EB.

Thanks pacer, I guess just never looked hard enough....knowing what the price would be...and tempting me to drop the cash for it.

This was my 2nd show. This was one amazing show! I listen to the boot often. I wish there was a poster for this show. I would settle for any kind of ad or newspaper articles. Not being from Toronto, I have no idea of there ever was such a thing.
