    I just wish more had to do with the specific city AND were beautiful pieces of art work all at once. Like Pitt '13, its on my wall and its still my grail. Love that thing.

    Totally agree with this. But after all these tours I'm guessing it's tough to come up with something original.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Seattle has gas works, needle, locks and dams, a troll, fishing, sports teams, a few mountains, a market, an underground and a pretty nice skyline. Lots of neat things there. Or you could do something totally random like a lighthouse at a landlocked city, lol.

    good ideas but that would require them playing seattle which seems like they don't do too often.

    Hehehe!

    You know that he recycled that idea right? I've noticed that quite a few artists revisit some of their earlier works.

    The Green Lady is the most iconic poster. For me, i'd have to say Sutton's Rome takes the cake.

    Maybe not an all timer but so cool in person. Sometimes I just find myself starring at it for long periods. To me it's up there with some of the more recent notables (Charlotte '13, Pitt '13, Transformers '15 etc.).

    That came out very nice. I have N8 Van Dyke AP as well, but mine is in a portfolio, and love looking at it. I've got to get it in a frame and hung on the wall. Can't believe it's almost been four years since that show. Think I'll listen to the boot. :rock_on:

    As far as value and being rare....The Wrigley Harry Caray Variant is probably only behind Chicago Blackie, Kozik Green Lady, EMEK SB, and Sitting Bull!

    The Kong is pretty good. One of the better post 2000 ones. 96 and 98 have a bunch that i think are nicer/cooler
