1675 for a kong. Dang. hit that show and didn't care about merch then. It was a fantastic show that fueled my pj fire. Before msg, we'd catch a show here and there. After in 2011 started to catch a few more in a row...canada...lining up for merch...hook line and sinker. All good fun though. 10 years later in a flash things changed. No regrets. Be safe all so we can do it again someday.
It's not Kong, but my NYC Williams is out for delivery by USPS after sitting in UPS Mail Innovations limbo since 9/11. I'm hoping it survived.
Edit: It made it. It's on a thinner paper stock than the Mumford and Munk One, but it looks great!
Love it! I have a poster still in limbo. Still sitting in Richmond, BC since September 8th. Hope that arrives safe & sound across the other side of the country.

Strangely the Ziegler has the worst front but about the best back.
You know...Santos mentioned about 70 pages back that we should not sleep on the Ziegler and that it was something to behold in person. Mine arrived yesterday and (unsurprisingly) Santos was correct. I have to take back my previous statements indicating that I was only getting it because it was a show that I was supposed to attend...The poster is pretty damn killer in person. Somehow there are more colors than are represented in the pictures that have been provided online...and the inking is substantial....heavy coating. I am now endorsing this poster for all of you on the fence....and, for what it is worth, my endorsement carries very little weight....
Santos must be getting a kick back on the sale of every Oakland poster he's able to influence.
On a serious, damn all of you for saying it looks much better in person!! I was perfectly fine not picking one up, but now I've got that little itch that needs scratching, lol! And I agree, I would've preferred the artwork that's on the back of the Oakland print to be on the front instead
I was almost certainly going to buy the Oakland poster. There's a lot of detail, but I just don't like how it is put together. Looks like a lot of raw meat. I like my meat more on the medium rare side. I hope they get another artist to do the Oakland shows whenever they happen.

Got my AP today. It is nicer in person, but still it's ... not great. And like others have mentioned, no tape on end caps and no kraft paper, so there's a corner/edge that's sliighlty messed up.
Still patiently waiting for there NYC poster to ship. Trying to place the devil in the poster. It looks like an old shot of Dick Clark from American Bandstand---anyone thought the same?

Speaking of posters... anyone see the Kong SE that sold on eBay yesterday for $1,675? 🤩
That's crazy. I remember buying an AP Kong back in 2016 or so for around $600-$700 (which was an unbelievable deal even at the time). To think that show editions are going for over a grand more than that right now is truly wild.
It’s crazy seeing some have all these issues with shipping. I got all the posters and all came shortly after shipping no issues in northeast pa. But I guess that’s usps now a days
The reason it wont is because everyone wants it to.
Do you have one? Photos don’t properly rep this poster. Colors are out of control awesome. Up against that sharp black background and we’re comparing the firey awesomeness of the forge against the worker on a black background on that Pittsburgh 13’. Also, Munk One. His stuff is damn near legendary in the poster world, Pearl Jam poster world in particular.
I think the show not happening will keep a cap on any on future crazy demand for the postponed show posters. I think there's a lot of people who can't understand why you'd want a poster from a show that you didn't attend, let alone never happened (I'm not one, but I think there are people...). OKC is cool, but I don't think it approaches Pitt.

Pittsburgh has an appeal that extends further than OKC. I grew up in Pittsburgh and moved to Tampa 17 years ago, and will have that in my blood forever. That's why Steelers/Penguins/(Possibly) Pirates fans are all over the world. I don't think there is the love for Oklahoma City that would drive a poster print to have a mass appeal that the iron worker has to the millions of former Western Pennsylvanians.

I got an email saying it was shipping in approx 5 days weeks aho but there is no tracking info.
You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
I did last week here in Canada. I would email him for the tracking number.
