I certainly get the love for the 98 posters, but I would agree that this 2020 batch is one of my favourite tour sets yet, great diversity of styles, some new artists and some old favourites. 1998 holds a lot of nostalgia for me and largely got me into PJ posters, but I enjoy the current batch too.
I still think the 98s aren’t great artistically (a few good ones though like the Hartford, St. Louis, Vegas and Dallas). Especially if you compare to say the Sperry Leopard, Chief, Pitt 13 etc, there is no comparison. The main reason they are so popular is their rarity/value and due to them being from the first show for many US based fans. As a UK based collector the 98s hold no real nostalgic value to me and I’ve always just bought the ones I like the best, the vast majority of which are from the 2010s.
But aren’t you just cherry picking 3 posters from different years and 3 different artists to put up against one tour of posters that were done by Ames when the premise is which year is collectively the best?

My OKC showed up today. It is stunning in person. Now I have the fun of framing it, and Baltimore. I also have an Ames S/N Who Live at Leeds to frame as well. Let the fun begin.
Has anyone heard back from 10C on the Baltimore posters that have been stuck in NJ for the past month
I'm still waiting. But they replied sent me a link to the Shipping Policy/ FAQ page and said that if it doesn't arrive by Monday to contact them for a refund:
"What if my order never arrives?
There have been substantial delays due to COVID-19. The normal delivery times may vary significantly. The below guidelines are based on "normal" circumstances, and current transit times will be affected.
Domestic orders that do not arrive within 30 days of the shipping date are eligible for refund or replacement, depending on merchandise quantities. You must make contact with Ten Club within that 30 day period* to be eligible for a refund or reshipment. (If your missing parcel is a Membership Item, it will be reshipped, not refunded)."

My Hamilton poster got a tracking # around the same time and had no movement on it since. I emailed 10C last week & they asked me to be patient as they were only 3 people etc etc... It did end up shipping since I emailed them, and is getting the updates (although there's no ETA) but it did seem odd that the poster sat for 3 plus weeks after getting the label generated.
Not nit picking the operation, the 10C has been good to me when all is said and done, but I did find that odd.
