    One day these will be valuable, since most of them probably ended up in landfills.

    Don't forget about the Wrigley Harry Caray!

    It's not that great of a poster, sorry.

    Its cool, but very typical Klausen. I never got the allure of it. Definitely not a $600 poster IMO. Maybe it has to be seen in person to be appreciated? Or the U2/Pearl Jam combo is appealing to some?

    It's rare and from an iconic show, that's it. Shuss and munk killed it. Emek and Ames did not...

    I believe he disagrees with your criticism of the Thomas Fenway being "the most expensive, wanted poster"

    Okay, well....stating a fact that the Fenway Thomas sells for $1300 less than the Kozik wasn't critical.

    I actually agree with you.

    (Prefaced that I am a casual poster fan...not hard core)
    From shows I've been to: Wrigley 13 Shuss and Pitt 13 Munk1.
    Outside that, I think the Kong NYC is next best.
    Curious on Wrigley 16 has in store.

    The most expensive poster I have seen listed and sold on these boards is Blackie. I believe it sold for 3500. I don't believe it's the rarest though.

    I am too. I don't think anything can top Cracker Jack though.

    My most wanteds are Kong and PJ20 Billboard. They are not the most expensive, but they are definitely out of my price range.

    Hell, I even had the PJ20 Billboard in my cart back in 2011, but I removed it because $90 was too steep.

    Kong was sold out by the time I got to MSG to see the opener (Band of Horses, I think?). Went to every level looking for it, struck out everywhere, and pretty much missed the opener while seeking it out. I wonder if they only sold it outside.
    I SAW PEARL JAM

    the most expensive poster is the Kozik Green Lady. The most wanted, in my opinion, would be Kong or Pitt 13

    Why does everyone like the Pitt 13 so much? Is it just the graphic?

    I've always just assumed Pearl Jam fans like muscular men.

    I've been a PJ fan since 2013, when I was 17, so I have missed a lot of history. I've seen them on 4 occasions, and it's remarkable how much dedication there is. I couldn't believe I had to wait outside for 4 hours to get a poster :)
    So I was curious as to what the holy grails were. I love movie posters and music posters

    San Diego '98
    Easy Street '05 (This one was untouchable for years--not many exist.)

    The Missing Link posters from 2000 are pretty much unicorns of the PJ poster world. They weren't officially authorized, so there aren't many of them in circulation. It's widely considered by many that they are the work of the Ames Bros. collective.

    I think this should be the most sought after poster. Were at the city bus stops. I even contacted the city and they said all posters get destroyed after use. I'm sure some "accidently fell out" image

    That's a nice rundown. I was lucky enough to acquire a Green Lady last week. It's at the framers now!

    My most wanted/ most expensive was Hartford 1998. I really like that poster.

    Columbia, MD and Washington D.C. 1998 were also not cheap either. I love those posters, plus I only collect posters of shows that i went to.

    My least favorite is the dead dog poster from the 1994 tour. I ruined my original in college that I paid $10 for at the show. I paid a lot more than that for a mint one a few years ago, but I don't care for it too much .....
