FT: Thomas "The Catch" Boston Fenway Orange Variant

edited April 2017 in Lost Dogs

I was lucky enough to score this poster in my mystery box. Great print, but I really only collect and hang show posters I was at. That said, my main ISO's are:

2013 Pitt
2014 Moline

I know those are highly sought after, but I believe there's pretty good interest in the Thomas print too. So hoping someone with one of my ISO's has interest in trying to work something out. PM me if you want to discuss!

Note: This is not signed/numbered, but is still a sweet print!

    Those aren't straight out of the fridge are they? :lol:

    They were, but luckily I keep my posters in a climate controlled room, along with my beer, so with an equal temperature and low humidity, condensation from the bottles isn't a problem.

    Bump for making me realize I actually got the variant in my box. Mine is going on the wall since I was there.
    1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th
    1992- Lollapalooza, Irvine, California
    Nothing since then. I suck.
    2016- Fenway Park, Boston - Both glorious nights

    How about a 2016 Wrigley Klausen Variant to trade?
  • fanofzsfanofzs Posts: 508
    It's an AP signed as well.
  • fanofzsfanofzs Posts: 508
    Interested?
  • JO66982JO66982 Posts: 43
    Sorry, have a trade pending.
  • fanofzsfanofzs Posts: 508
    ok, thanks
  • JO66982JO66982 Posts: 43
    Trade fell through. @fanofzs - passing on the Klausan variant for now. Thx.

    Still hoping to work something for an ISO.

    Holy $hit, The Catch variant in the Mystery box?

    You scored.
  • JO66982JO66982 Posts: 43
    Yeah, I'm stoked about it! It would look awesome framed and displayed, but I've only got so much wall space. Trying to dedicate mine to shows I've been to and missed out on prints. Hopeful to trade this to a good home and help fill some of my gaps!

    Good for you, a lesser person would have it up on eBay already.

    Cheers to good karma!

    What posters would you consider for trade?

    @Merkin Baller Ebay like this one...

    ebay.com/itm/Pearl-Jam-Boston-Fenway-Park-Poster-2016-Rare-Steve-Thomas-Orange-Variant/232309663994?_trksid=p2050601.c100085.m2372&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140211132617%26meid%3Ddc9337f3261c43ccb4e7ad2fbbf1df94%26pid%3D100085%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D302293201573%26clkid%3D4273593370358964289&_qi=RTM2247626

    It's the non-signed variant, same as mine, so guess there's a decent value in this one.

    I was hopeful to trade for a 2013 Pitt or Moline. Think Pitt is probably a long shot, but worth noting. I gotta think that someone with a Moline show poster who didn't attend would be willing to part with it for this bad boy. I think the Thomas poster is freakin' sweet, better than a tractor, but it just doesn't mean as much to me as Moline where I was in GA with 2 of my best friends seeing an incredible show.

    I hear that, hold out for what you want.

    Good luck!

    @fanofzs - I did go to Wrigley, but really have all the Wrigley merch I'm after. Maybe I'm crazy to hope for the 2 ISO's above, but feel like I have to give it shot. Not every day I've got trade bait like this Thomas to offer up.

    @SkyBreaksAtDawn - Let me guess, you got a Mark 5 Fenway poster and the scary clown??? Gonna pass, thx.

    You can see the same thing I do. No signature and it's got a $499 bid, so someone valued it there. Not saying everyone does, but it only takes one.

    Ok. I do have a Feldman embellished/painted Wrigley print too. If you decide on something other than Pitt and Moline, let me know. I have other non Wrigley PJ stuff I may be able to trade. Good luck!

    good luck, OP! that variant is sweet! it's actually the only poster I have of a show that I did not attend. I have the basic print, but love it!
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    As a baseball fan I must stick to the original print. Mine is actually out getting framed.

    It's one of my 3 favorite pieces of concert memorabilia (all 3 being PJ posters of course) and I went all out with it too. My wife got me a nice gift certificate for Christmas to a local place that does great work, and we splurged on this one. I was lucky enough to score the AP, and it has a place of honor in our living room, opposite the Pendleton Skyline from the GCF.

    As my 9 year old nephew remarked "It's like two of your favorite things, Pearl Jam & Fenway all in one"

    He's a smart kid. :D

    Post a picture of the poster bud!
    My prized pj possessions are: ticket and poster from my first show (Randall's 96), nj/msg poster 98, ed ved guitar pic used during long road (my absolute favorite song), set list from show 50, and the Fenway poster.

    Sorry to hijack your thread op. Good luck with your trade!!

    I love this print. Very tempting but I'm trying to stick to my guns and not start buying posters from shows I didn't attend. Once those flood gates open its tough to turn back lol

    So cool. I wish one of the Wrigley prints would have incorporated Wrigley Field into the poster more (not a huge fan of the Klausen) . It would be the same for me, having 2 of my favorite things (Wrigley and PJ) in one!
