Using OKC for example, if the show had happened, I’d have the potential to get the OKC poster along with just those there at the show.
Now, with with an online release, I’ve got to fight with everyone worldwide for the same poster. The fact that others now have the same access significantly diminishes my chances of getting the poster to the event that I actually had tickets to.
Frustrating, but I totally get it. Almost makes me want to jump in and purchase posters to other shows I wouldn’t have gone to so that if I miss out on OKC, I may have some trading equity.
Judging by how long Hamilton has been available and STL was available before selling out, you're not going to have to fight anyone to get an OKC poster if you want it. It'll be much easier than standing in line for hours at the arena.
Agreed. However, I was referring to the APs. My expectation is to purchase from the shop, but I still have my hopes up for one of the few s/n..
No you weren't. The APs have never been sold at the venue. Always online drops where you're fighting with everyone worldwide.
Ames signed my acl PJ 2008 at the gig. They had a tent.
That's a signed SE. Not an AP.
There’s only one edition of that poster, it wasn’t sold anywhere else. 500, all signed by Ames at the show, no SE, they just call it the “1st edition” on ebeans
1st edition on ebeans is synonymous with show edition.
Again, I’ll take a pic so you can see- my portfolio is in storage since I’m moving soon- but I made a note on ebeans for myself that it’s signed “ap201/500”. Maybe they fucked up on mine though?
Traditionally, the AP versions are sold exclusively through the artist's website, and they are usually signed and / or numbered. The signature is what makes the difference.
It's not wrong to say APs aren't typically available at shows... your show was an outlier where the artist was there signing prints. His signature turned a SE into an AP.
Gotcha I understand. Makes me curious about pre-website shows then. I know my 96’s aren’t signed I don’t think, but was there any such thing as an AP back in the day?

Also, an FYI -that acl poster wasn’t sold with other merch, the Ames cowboy one I’m talking about was sold only at their table where they signed it when you bought it- we weren’t buying it at the merch tent and then bringing it over to them to sign, they made it specifically to sign/sell at their tent.

To make your point - if they're signing/numbering them in person vs. doing it in a studio and throwing it in a tube, I don't see the practical difference

IDK, and in all honesty I should have said "It's my understanding that" instead of the word "traditionally".
I'm sure there are some people here who can clarify better than me.

Makes sense... you bought it directly from the artist; this lines up with my understanding of what an AP is.

People have gotten SE posters signed by the artist after the fact. It doesn’t make them an AP. Just a signed SE. I know someone here recently posted a photo of a Munk One Pitt that they got signed at a convention.

I think a sign that that’s been done is there’s no #, just a sig

Sounds about right... the AP are the ones allotted to the artist to sell.
In this case, Role Models bought his on the spot from Ames and it was signed in person, rather than buying it from their website.

Right on, thanks for the info. Shit’s confusing! Didn’t mean to start shit, was just responding to the post saying AP’s were only sold online. I think that’s correct, I just got an outlier I suppose!

Also, an FYI -that acl poster wasn’t sold with other merch, the Ames cowboy one I’m talking about was sold only at their table where they signed it when you bought it- we weren’t buying it at the merch tent and then bringing it over to them to sign, they made it specifically to sign/sell at their tent. There was another Ames PJ poster from the same event that they weren’t signing it was sold at the merch tent. Same show, 2 posters, one signed ap201/500, one not signed. Not sure what the hell any of that means, but I hadn’t seen it before and it was kinda weird.
I have an AP x/200 of the other one, which is an RV. There was also an ACL festival poster by Ames with both SEs and APs. I believe the Shawn Kemp 2009 was a similar situation -- sold at the venue at a separate Ames table and S/N x/500. There was a 2nd poster for those shows that had the typical SE and AP version (surfing sasquatch was one). .
Right on, thanks for the info. Shit’s confusing! Didn’t mean to start shit, was just responding to the post saying AP’s were only sold online. I think that’s correct, I just got an outlier I suppose!
There is some examples of show edition posters sold at the merch table that were signed and numbered, but they were not APs. The example that comes to mind is one of all time fav posters, which is the Hamilton 2005 poster by Brad Klausen. They were s/n /1050 and he had the APs which he sold online which were also s/n but out of /100.
Bought my Hamilton! I guess I'm the only one who likes the art on that one...
I grabbed one. Your not the only one
I grabbed one too. I only get posters to shows I've been to or in this case had tickets to. It's not my favourite but It's definitely not as bad as TO N1 2016 and I still bought that one.
Have they ever dropped prints this late in the day?
Good question. Not to my recollection. I have a bad memory tho

Just trying to dissipate some of the anxiety from waiting all day on a "go/no-go" for a drop today, and getting radio silence!
IDK, and in all honesty I should have said "It's my understanding that" instead of the word "traditionally".
I'm sure there are some people here who can clarify better than me.
Makes sense... you bought it directly from the artist; this lines up with my understanding of what an AP is.
I kid I kid
Sounds about right... the AP are the ones allotted to the artist to sell.
In this case, Role Models bought his on the spot from Ames and it was signed in person, rather than buying it from their website.
Thread integrity: what’s being dropped today?!
