    Definitely the Cracker Jack poster. It oozes Chicago. From the big Wrigley show, to Cracker Jack originating from Chicago. Crossing my fingers that my mystery poster is Cracker Jack. Otherwise maybe enough of them will get out to others where theres a temporary price dip on ebay and I can snag one? Yeah probbaly not... :)

    That one is neither ugly or boring. I have it hanging in my office and love it.

    This is the next one I want to get. My first show and it is the only one that I am missing from the concerts that I have attended (and it is UGLY).

  • I used to own this one when I was an irresponsible 17 year old. Ended up getting torn at some party or other that I had when I was 18. Would love to have it back.

    Also this one. Thought at the show that to save carrying it home on the tube I would wait for it to show up in the website shop. To my knowledge it never did.

    East Troy/Chicago 98.
    I bought the shirt, but not the poster. No idea why. Especially since I had a bunch of 96 posters.

    My holy grail was 1998 Barrie ON (Molson Park). This was my 1st show. Thanks to helpme2helpyou I now have it.
  • angry_skullangry_skull Posts: 323
    I would love the three-frame "do the evolution" poster. Or one of the PJ20 ones.

    1998 East Troy/Chicago - Bought one on Ebay in 2005 but it was in horrible condition so I sent it back.

    2000 - Rosemont Missing Link - Had one at one time.
  • There are so many amazing posters still not in my collection that picking one is impossible. I like having the posters from shows played on my birthday but only a lottery win will see this one making it to my wall:

    Hey man! I have the two first on your list. I never went to any of those gigs, but went crazy with collecting a few years back. Never going to frame either of them. If you got vinyl I will gladly trade... PM me if yes.

    Hartford '98. 100%

    It was my 1st show. I had a chance to buy one there, but as a college kid with about $30 total in his pocket, it didn't make sense at the time. On one hand, I'm kicking myself for not getting it, but on the other hand, even if it survived the night, it most likely would not have survived the next 4 semesters of college life.

    I actually found a reprint on ebay a year or two ago. I scooped it up for short money (I think it cost around $25 after shipping). Despite not being an original, I'm just happy to have a decent sized reprint. If you're interested, you can see it in the 1st comment on the following thread.

    http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/comment/5335438#Comment_5335438

    Also framed on the wall, my wife & I have Hartford '10, Wrigley Cracker Jack & the Wrigley Mural. Those are probably my favorite posters after Hartford '98 for shows I've been to. Honorable mentions go to the Made in America poster which I have framed (not the best poster, but it was a great weekend), Boston '10 and EV Boston '11 both of which I rotate in the frame. Funny story about Boston '10, I got one at the show & have it in & out of the frame, and then I got the exact same poster in my Mystery Box. Go figure! (I wonder if 10c threw a Boston poster in my box because of my shipping address? Maybe it wasn't completely random)

    A couple that come to mind for shows I wasn't at is the aforementioned Boston (Mansfield) '98, (whale & lighthouse image. . . . beautiful) and the Pittsburgh 2013.

    Sorry for the long comment, but this thread is right up my alley!!!

    Maui 98 Saw both shows
    Missed the poster. Thought I would get one after the show.
    Will not buy one from someone I do not know.
    Great to have something to look forward to. Actually getting one might be anticlimactic.
