    what about Merriweather Post Pavillion 1996 with mermaid.  The poster were pulled as apparently they were not endorsed by the band.  Wish I had that one.
    I don't think that story is entirely true.

    The band did not sanction the poster to have nipples showing I thought, so they screen printed them on?

    400 or so out there?  Still not the rarest.
    I think you're right about the Ames Merriweather.
    My recollection from that time is a rumor that Kim of the Fastbacks (the opening act that night) saw the poster that night and thought it was offensive.  She told PJ how she felt and they stopped sales.  I was there that night and have the poster.  It was definitely on sale at the show with other official merchandise.  I have seen the estimates of 400 but also seem to remember estimates of about twice as many.  I also think the remaining stock was ultimately available from 10 Club after the tour.     
    Anyone have a pic of the poster? I'd love to see what Kim from the Fastbacks found so offensive. Surely it wasn't just because of nipples?
    Think this is the one.
    Huh. Who would have thought that a member of the Fastbacks would be a huge prude? :lol:
    In
     the Ames book there's a bit more background I seem to recall. Something about Eddie being really unhappy with it and that the image came from a porno mag. I d have to get the book out to be sure.
    If they stole the image of the woman from a porno mag, then I understand why there would be a problem....
    annnnnd how did they know it came from a porno mag?!?
    Stone recognized it

    These were on the sides of Bus Stops in Chicago. Inquired about these after the show, company said they just trashed em. Should have “let the case open on its own”

    Five years ago people were clamoring about them, now?  Not so much.

    I have a bunch of the NYC billboard ones from 13.  Still sitting in a tube.  I have no idea what I'm going to do with them, lol.

    Well over 100 of those.  Nope.
    Only 34 in collections on Ebeans. Many are listed as 1st and H/C so they could double a few #’s. Definitely not well over a hundred, maybe half that. Also, no show editions were ever made. Regardless, this thread is a good/funny/interesting read behind the print:  http://http//forum.expressobeans.com/viewtopic.php?t=4649

    You think everyone that has it is an ebeans user?

    I've seen a bunch of these over the years and they still get sold by Emek.

    It's hard to argue with someone who knows everything.  One of the reasons I love you, Chris!

    He does.  I was there when he did it.  

    But . . . did you press it in a book or root it so that you had more?  

    Honestly, I'm impressed that you made it home with it in one piece no matter whether pressed or not.

    Are we looking for rarest or most desired/expensive?

    I wouldnt want that Zaius on my wall for instance, I dont care if there are 1 of them.

    Rarest may also be the 1/1 Atlantic City NJ 05 Klausen variant, now on ebay for $2k.
    Variants shouldn't count.  You would have 1000 "test prints" thrown into the mix then...

    BRAD actually did two different 1/1 of the 05 Atlantic City prints, this one on eBay and the other is on my wall. The two have slightly different colors. He sold these on eBay with the proceeds going to help out his printing company he was using at the time
    There are actually 4 different 1/1 editions for this one.
