Expresso Beans list only 133 show editions, 53 artist editions and 31 variants.
Those a really low numbers considering how big the shows were. You think there would be allot more.
They were the only print that were sold out at the shows. I wouldn't be surprised if Ten Club never sells them.
I would imagine they will sell a small allotment, but could also see them them using it to package with other posters on ebay for the Vitalogy Foundation. I feel like that will be one of the only ways they can get rid of excess stock for the slow moving ballpark posters.

I'm thinking there will be plenty of leftover ballpark posters to put in the next "Mystery Tube" offerings.
Jackelopes for all!!!

It would also seem to be pretty easy to know the posters that are sought after by the fans and print another run for those prints. The fans want the merch. PJ and the artist can make more money for themselves or for charity and it puts the flippers out of business. I don't care at all about whether something I have is rare or if everyone who wants one can get one. I would love everyone to wallpaper their houses with PJ art! If you want a collectible version, sure - use an AP/signed poster/variant but why limit the show prints at all? A classic example is the Thomas print. It was sold out instantly. No stock was even held in reserve for sale at the shows or at the merch booths later in the weekend. So someone clearly knows this was in demand - why not commission an immediate additional print run and sell online. Maybe they are planning to do exactly this...we can all hope!

If you are a baseball and Pearl Jam fan this one is a must own. Visually I find it to be in the upper echelon of PJ posters.

Agree, this poster has class written all over it. Timeless art for the wall

I think the price is likely to go up. If you really want one get it now...

Couldn't have put it better. Hangs proudly in my office and everyone comments on it.

More will not be printed because that isn't how gig posters and artists operate. All credibility is lost if a poster edition becomes open and more are printed arbitrarily.

It's only my 4th favorite of the Fenway posters, behind the Ames Green Monster, Eaton Green Lady, & Mark 5 playing card. I really wish Wrigley would've gotten a better baseball themed poster.

You didn't like the Wrigley Klausen?

The Mark5 Variant is even nicer than the show edition.

I also have the AP & AP variant of Taylor's eagle and they are both pretty sweet. The variant really pops.

Obviously everyone has his/her own taste. Personally I do not like the Mark5 Variant at all (Christmas-y green and red, or the old look of the New Jersey Devils), whereas the show edition reflects the colors of the Red Sox and seems more true to the spirit of the venue and its occupants. Just a different view, that's all.

I have a thomas... looking for a Charlotte '13...

yeah don't forget to put Charlotte 2013 on that list.... that bastard is about as rare as it gets for later day posters.
I haven't had any luck finding one at a decent price.

I prefer the show edition to the variant, but I love what I think was the methodology behind using the green: The Green Monster.

Not really. It's not bad art by any means and I completely understand why people love his work, but his style is usually not my taste.
