The Pearl Jam 2016 Poster Experience!

ComeToTX

That was the year of the pre-order and I remember asking whoever was at the Ames booth if the preorder was for the camper or that one and they had no idea. Went ahead and bought it and it worked out.

^ Ah yes, 2009. No need to worry about picking up a poster to the show you were attending. Place the pre order online and wait till the poster arrives to you. Good times! Wish they brought that back. Did anyone complain with 10club or had a problem with this type of sweet service for them to stop this?

i have a PJ Ames with no year.

ha...

i never noticed there was no year on that one... and it has been framed in my house for like 6 years... funny...

that being said... i do love the limited-ness of that print... only 200 of them in existence.... versus the like 1 million they printed of the camper for the same festival... between the camper, this print, and the ACL fest poster Ames did, they must have walked away from ACL with a pretty penny that year....

There was only 200 of those? I remember getting one from their table at the show and how unpleasant the dudes were at the booth. I have it framed in my attic somewhere.

I completely agree with you! I'd be surprised if there were a lot of complaints. If you recall though, a lot of these sat in the shop for quite a long time and were part of the 2013 Black Friday sale. Even the Salt Lake City "Red Mosquito" was readily available for months. They probably over-estimated demand, printed too-many and got stuck with holding too much inventory, which is never good for business.

Don't you think demand has grown significantly since then? I too wish the pre-order option was an option for us. Maybe next tour?

They were not nice. I remember that 6+ years later.

i hope todays print is a dud so it increases the chances of a classic Philly poster

Arrived damaged. Shipping in tubes only 2" wider than the print is not a good idea grasshopper. Waiting for a response from the artist.

Official PEARL JAM Screenprint
£40.00





I made this print a for Pearl Jam a few weeks back. Its always a pleasure to be asked to do anything for a band that you respect so much.

The print is supposed to be a kitsch 1950s Sci-Fi comic book cover imitation. Its Darwin inside a giant robot ape which seems to have had its head ripped off...

It also has a back print of a drawing I did a while back of Darwin - plus an official PJ hologram to prove the prints authenticity.

I have 100 of these - once they are gone they are gone.

I will sign and emboss the ones I have.

Each print is 18" x 24" and is probably the best quality screen print I've seen.

Got my Greenville AP yesterday, well packed from Ames.

I never hung around long enough to interact with anyone at the booth.... got the print and got out of there.... remember there being a lot of people crowding the place tho... and I was there early Friday afternoon as myself and a buddy wanted to see Phoenix and they were on at like 4 pm (or maybe even earlier)....

yea, there is not many of those at all.... ebeans says it was 500 copies, I swear to go I remember it being numbered out of 200.... I'm not 100% sure though as the signature and numbering on mine was right at the edge and as a result is under the matting in the frame...

great line-up on the mainstage on sunday that year with arctic monkeys, dead weather, and PJ.... ah... those were the days.... before EDM took over every festival....

Its not bad, but I feel like they missed an opportunity to hit on the burgeoning bourbon market. Some kind of bourbon bottle would have been cool. Just my opinion tho.

Yep. Like the Mexico print.

Not sure the correlation between the wild west & Kentucky but it's definitely better than the jax, Hampton & columbia posters.

Why does it say "Posters". Variants or something?
