I never purchase posters to shows I don’t go to (and have never done an artist sale), but man I am digging this print. Being a comics guy, it has a cool Ghost Rider vibe, but the text about the legend on the back sold me.
Does it look as good in person? That red really pops!
One of my friends is a big history guy, specifically medieval. And he loves it…so he talked me into it haha. He loved the historical accuracy of the armor too.
Hiya. Here’s a #Pearljam
poster from their current European tour that I’m hoping will be the
first of many posters to come. The show has been unfortunately cancelled
due to heat damaging #EddieVedder’s throat. Bummer.
Fortunately,
I am releasing the poster NOW in my shop (link in bio). I’m usually
directed by some sort of client brief or assignment, but this was
different. This was a rare opportunity to try some storytelling in a
single image and look a little into my early days when I was making
flyers and band merch.
Folklore and ghost stories always hold my
attention, so it felt appropriate to make something based on ‘The
Headless Templar of Prague.’ This headless horseman allegedly rides
through the streets at night in search of someone brave or drunk enough
to pierce his heart with his own sword in order to set his soul free.
Big thanks to @mrtsurt for tapping me to do this. It was a real joy.
Yes. Line went pretty fast. I was able to get everything I wanted. I didn’t get a poster but there seemed to be quite a bit left when I was there.
👍

And it was poorly packed, no craft paper and the end caps were not taped. I’m lucky it was only going in country and not that far. I can only imagine what the international shipments will look like.
it’s good the band is choosing new artists but it’s clear that they haven’t bothered to learn how to pack these and ship them properly. Considering these issues are showing up a lot lately.
Need a Pearl Jam artist school of posters and packaging 😂

I only think 3 have been poorly packaged this year? The Townshend, Rifkin and Schommer? Lots of the other new artists like Bella Grace, Peter Diamond etc are experienced in movie posters etc so have packaged stuff well

The weird thing abut some of the new artists on the Pearl Jam roster is they have sold prints before. Prior shipments have they not been contacted by customers that their prints arrived damaged? Where no kraft paper was protecting the poster & the end caps were not taped up? The fact they are charging 100+ US bucks plus shipping on a poster, the least they could do is package the poster properly.

But the striking background is dope.
