    Top five of the ones I own: 

     The only posters I have from shows I didn't attend are from 2020, my favs are Phoenix and Oklahoma City.  Top 3 then are Hartford Huck Finn; Philly Extinction (I actually didn't like this when I first saw it at the show, but bought it anyway and now it's really grown on me).  And my all time favorite is the Mother Earth from Cleveland, it's the perfect piece of art.

    I'm new to posters.

    1. Donkey Kong 5/21/10. This was the first one I thought about buying at the show. I didn't and now regret it immensely.
    2. Randall's Island 9/96. My first show, so I'm hoping to find one at a reasonable price one day, damaged or not.
    3. St. Paul 9/2/23 is the first one I bought. I was not there, bought it on here. Stunning.
    4. Austin 9/19/23. Salamander. I was there. My kids love axolotls, so it was a no brainer.
    5. PJ vs Ames vol 2. Got my mini Donkey Kong :)
    Randall's Island 9/29/96, Continental Arena 9/8/98, MSG 9/10/98, Jones Beach 8/23/00, 8/24/00, 8/25/00, Nassau Coliseum 4/30/03, MSG 7/8/03, 7/9/03, Continental Arena 6/1/06, 6/3/06, MSG 6/24/08, 6/25/08, Spectrum 10/30/09, 10/31/09, MSG 5/20/10, 5/21/10, PJ20 9/3/11, 9/4/11, Charlottesville 10/29/13, Charlotte 10/30/13, Global Citizen 9/26/15, Raleigh 4/20/16 :( Baltimore 3/28/20 :( Austin 9/18/23, 9/19/23, Forum 5/21/24, Baltimore 9/12/24, Fenway 9/17/24, Nashville 5/6/25, 5/8/25

    Yep. If I saw that kong I wouldn't have got it. Didn't care about posters back then. Didn't even know about them. Saw someone with a tube at that show. Was lucky to trade for one and on my wall now. Randall's too. I don't have one. My 2nd show. Won't pay mad cash for it.
    Love my:
    kong
    Emek chief
    Welker San Palo
    Munk one Toronto moose
    Rhys Baltimore
    And others...

    Still addicted to posters

    That Klausen Atlantic City is an underrated poster.  I was able to pick one up in trade a while back and love having it on the wall.  I don’t think I remember even seeing a merch stand that night at the borgata let alone the poster.

    Maybe this isn’t the place to ask but can anyone recommend a 24x18 UV glass? I’m looking for something 98-99% uv protective for a 24x18 frame. If the frame is included that’s fine too. I think I’ve confused myself comparing glass lol

    Definitely order online. They usually have 70% off deals and 15% off your first order. It’s ridiculous that they won’t match in store.

    For me ... I've owned all of them at some point over the past 30 years, but have since sold off my poster collection.

    If I had thousands and thousands to spend and could only buy five:

    96 Merriweather Mermaid
    Kong AP
    Chief foil
    Chicago Missing Link
    Emek wave (wasn't there a black and white one?)

    And yeah, I'm changing this list daily.


    Those are five I don't have and will probably never get. I wouldn't mind APs or variants of ones I do have like the Fenway Catch or the Munk One "Dirty Frank" but since I have regular ones, I'm fine with those.

    I don't know if they count, but if they do, I'd have a hard time kicking out two of those five for the Neil Young chief and Soundgarden Frank Kozik green lady.

    Out of five that I have:

    Dirty Frank

    Spawn (I started the thread here, skipped out on it, saw one for a good price on eBay and then paid for that auction the same day as I missed out on the 10C sale a few years ago.)

    Columbus 2003 -- First show

    A four-parter (2x2) poster of Eddie Vedder "Ukulele Songs" at Benayoral Hall. The thing is absolutely massive.

    Maybe the Fenway Catch, but I kind of like that Kevin Shuss though.
