    That Ames is really growing on me. Makes me wish I had the 2013 ape to go with it. 
    Me too.  I just hope he doesn't burn the mastodon with his cigarette.

    More demand imo. They’re all pretty awesome. Everyone has a different favorite.

    Tightly guarded secret, for some reason.  I think it's weird that we don't know the print run totals.

    It would be nice if they #'d the show editions.

    Ive got my CRB show posters and they are all signed and #'d by the artist. Although a much lower run of prints than what PJ does.

    Normally the artist edition is than just noted A/P and signed.

    I would vote fewer.

    In Seattle the prints were everywhere.  In Boston I never even saw one poster...

    it was WAY easier to get all merch in Boston... way more booths inside and out.  I am guessing they were able to sell more stuff.  Or they saw how many leftover Chicago and Seattle prints there were and adjusted quantities (not sure how far in advance posters are printed).

    I would imagine they print farther in advance than that.
    And also, the only leftover Chicago ones in large quantities are the two that are some of the worst posters I've ever seen. If they were halfway decent, they would sell out too.

    I didn’t buy any but Boston posters were pretty sweet all around. Seattle posters were pretty fugly. 
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    I had been debating since the shows whether or not I wanted the Chicago Ames. I purchased the train and cop posters, and am now happy it has sold out so I do not have to purchase another. The Seattle posters didn't do anything for me.

    The Seattle posters are not that great, no surprise they are sitting in the shop still.
    Really?  I like 4/5 of the Seattle posters.  The one I dislike is sold out.  Go figure.

    Did the merch in Seattle go toward the fundraising efforts? If so, I wouldn't doubt if more Seattle posters were printed to move a larger volume of merch.

    Same here....Ames was the only one that didn't do anything for me yet I felt like I should buy it for some reason.  I checked ebay yesterday and there were quite a few with no bids so it didn't seem that sought after.

    Really?  I got the posters I needed in Seattle and in Boston I never saw a one.  I also made up my mind that I wasn't waiting on line for 4 hours so when I went to a merch booth they were all gone.  I had also made up my mind that when inside I wasn't buying anything, lol.

    Yeah I would put Boston merch in the same category as Chicago.  More booths outside but I think the same quantities were stretched among them.
