So what's your holy grail of posters?

BHealy · July 2014

I would say the Wrigley "Cracker Jack" poster. It was my first show. I had always wanted to see them, from the beginning.

Get_Right · July 2014

none that I don't have, maybe one of the wrigleys-only show I attended I dont have the poster for.
My favorite poster that I have is MSG 98

2000 Missing Link Pittsburgh. Willing to spend the money, just can't find one

EdTownshend · July 2014

I've been dying to get the Showbox 2004. I went to buy one...three stacks on the table...they said were out and took the three stacks somewhere. No one has ever been able to tell me what happened. Saw one in a mystery box...10 club gave me no answers...just that you can't buy individual items. Still wonder what happened.

Philly Made in America 2012 all green variant.

If anyone has an extra or wants to part with theirs, pm me ; )

1998 Perth. Someone please sell it to me.

Someone help Brian

this was my grail, but a shout out like this on this forum made the dream reality.

Id love the same to happen for my friend here too

pdalowsky · July 2014

If there was one poster left I would like but will never own it would be the 2000 Blackie.

Mostly because of its rarity and because it looks stunning framed.

helped a friend get this two months ago, and his frame job is immense

N Charleston, SC 1996

as far as I know these were not actually sold at the show.
Different look than the artists that they use now.
I would really like to get my hands on this one.

I picked this up from a guy who lives 30 minutes from me. Stored flat, quite pricey….but it's mine……FINALLY!!!! Now, to find the 1998 Detroit poster.

@BIGDaddyWil from the guy in Mason, MI?

Kathi · July 2014

The 2011 EV Seattle poster by munk one...if anyone has one of those, pm me. I have all the Wrigley ones for trade too if that's preferred. Couple of others too (EV solo tours 2012, Europe 2012, last fall tour...) but I doubt any of those are valuable enough.
I usually don't buy posters from shows I wasn't at, but I just love this one, and I'd like a memory of Seattle on my wall, since I just spent a little over a month doing research there and loved it.

Yes. He said many people contacted him regarding this poster.

buck502000 · July 2014

Good job Will. I just avoided what would have surely become a holygrail type poster for me - the London Police Amsterdam - apparently they had an additional 13 numbered proofs after they sold the 88 initial posters. Cheers!!!

Cool! But I see it's out of stock again. :(
How did you find out there were additional posters left? I'd love to have one too.

otter · July 2014

Mine is Pittsburgh 2013. I lost the lottery, got to the merch booth too late, and my seats were pretty bad but I love the poster.

Is the '13 better, worse, or the same as the '98 Pittsburgh? The 98 has that simple silk screen vibe but the 13 is cool as can be. I'm torn.

I emailed them right after the show and they hooked me up. B-)

BinFrog · July 2014

I would LOVE to get my hands on a Hartford 96 or 98 poster. *sigh*

scrappysattic · July 2014

Mine is my 96 Harford which was my first show.... still chasing the 98 Great Woods!!

dankind · July 2014

After two mystery boxes and one mystery tube, it's still MSG II 2010 Ames (a.k.a. KONG!!!!). Someday.

Also, a PJ20 Munk One/Maxx242 Billboard print, but that's just crazy talk. Never.

One is for sale on Lost Dogs forum!

Vitalogensia · July 2014

Might be awhile before I get the Ames & Klausen PJ20 prints, but I'll probably never get the PGH Missing Link, so that's my holy grail. Having the Billboard and PGH '13 makes me feel lucky enough, though.

shadowcast · July 2014

I have mine which was the Borgata Show in 2005. I was at this show and in ranks in my top 5.

My first show and I think it cost me $10.

Probably my favorite

Weston1283 · July 2014

Would love to get my hands on an Atlanta 2012 print someday. My second show, drove 7 hours with my roomate and waited all day to get the rail. Amazing experience, I just wasn't into posters until after the show unfortunately.

Don't worry, man
There def weren't any posters left even before PJ took the stage.
You should be glad you weren't dragging a poster around thru the mess that was Piedmont Park that day. remember those port-o-johns... that was one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen.
I feel bad for the women that had to use those.

And btw.... I am still searching for an ATL 2012 too. cool poster

FrankieG · July 2014

I don't even know what my Holy Grail Poster is...
I guess that's a good thing, right? That means I probably already own it? :-S
I would say PJ20 Billboard or Santa Barbara Big Wave but that's like a default answer...

Haha, we were on the rail from the start so we didnt get a chance to see the bathooms. It was a long hot day, I remember the guy next to us paying 20 dollars to one of the media people in front of the rail for her bottle of water. It was all worth it when the band took the stage, and yes, the poster is awesome.

20 bucks... man, that is highway robbery.
