I finally got a Klausen Gorge this afternoon. Been trying to score one for a while now, and I was outside having a smoke when the mail lady drove up. I saw her try to hand the tube to my neighbor, and I told the wife "there's my gorge!" When she drove up to our house and handed me the tube, it looked a little rough, but I had hope that the poster was OK. 3 minutes later, I discovered that the poster was indeed crushed. Fuckin' USPS. At least it was insured. Maybe if 10C ever sells these I can get a new one...

"NEWMAN".....!!!!!!!!!

The photo of the back is out of focus, but you can see the crush pattern right through the middle of the print.

Master Framer, if you read this, do you think this is something that can be fixed, or mostly fixed, with a heat press?

Also, does anyone know if I file the insurance claim with USPS, do they take the damaged merch?

Anyway, I'm gonna go drown my sorrows with some ice cold Miller Lite...

Have a good weekend everyone!

I work as an electronics technician for the postal service in Philly and about two years ago they put in a machine called the APPS ( another peice of postal shit ) Is what we call it. This machine is highly automated it took 4 or 5 jobs away. The main problem is that there is what they call level changes and turns and no way to capture the mail peice so the poster tubes roll around. This has been a problem ever since this machine was put in. Some other types of mail also has problems on this machine. I'd file a claim if I was you. Also file a formal complaint with the postmaster of your post office. Say that it is an unacceptable service. Stir the pot and don't give up in a week that's what they want. This machine cost alot of poeple ther jobs and ruins alot of mail. I would suggest anybody that gets a smashed tube do this and then the postal service might get the idea.

Yeah that's true, but also I used to work at the Postal Hub in our area.

Let me tell you...those guys unloading the trucks don't give a shit about the mail in them. Especially when your truck is running 2-3 hours late and you are FORCED to stay over in an unairconditioned warehouse with 110 degrees temps and you seriously doubt that you'll get OT but that doesn't matter how much you are getting paid you just want to go home because you've been on the clock for 12 hours so just get the fucker unloaded fast.

That's why I quit.

yes, Ebay sucks...
I just bought the Katowice (2007) poster... I put a bid just "to see" and I won the auction.
I'm glad because this poster is my favorite of 2007, but I had promised to myself to only buy the posters of the shows I was at...
