Awww man!!!  Missed this one. Ten club should buy the ones on eBay to try to find out which 10c members are scalping the posters….then cancel their memberships. 

How would they figure it out that way? Look at the return address once they get it and check their database? Seems like a lot of PI work for something they wouldn't care about. 

Or at least list a warning before purchasing that if they get caught scalping they risk losing their membership. Ten Club does this for concert tickets. Should be extended to limited edition merchandise too.

Take a minute, when you can, and think about why you are focusing on punishing people buying and selling the posters and having no focus on the fact that if more were printed you wouldn't have had to start your post with "Awww man!!!"

Why should he focus on the 10c? 1000 posters seems like a lot to me. If it wasn't limited I doubt they would have sold that many. I wouldn't pay $50 for a poster that wasn't limited, would anyone? 

yes...I don't give a shit if it's limited or not. I like that poster because it's my favorite album....ever

I've always loved this image. It's hands down my favorite art work from any album cover. Soooooooo, not happy I missed this.

I thought about, and could of gotten one, but I had no need for it. I got this 5 or 6 years ago on Ebay for $35 I like it better

I have a saved search on eBay for that original one, which I had from the tour but managed to destroy over time. Fingers crossed I get lucky like you one of these days. I bought one of the new ones, but like the original one better.

Did I miss the part where the poster actually had any reference to Pearl Jam other than the inside knowledge that it was the album art?

I asked ChatGPT to write a shanty about this poster ordeal. Here it is... 

(Verse 1) 

Come all ye Pearl Jam fans, gather 'round and hear my tale 

'Bout the limited edition poster, that quickly set sail 

It was for the album Yield, a true work of art 

But if you didn't act fast, it quickly did depart

(Chorus)

Oh, the Yield poster, it was a sight to see 

But if you weren't quick enough, it was not meant to be 

Fans lined up for hours, hoping to get a chance 

But in the end, it sold out, leaving many in a trance

(Verse 2) 

The design was so perfect, with colors bright and bold 

A treasure for collectors, worth more than gold 

The band knew the demand, they tried to meet the need 

But even they were surprised, by how fast it did succeed

(Chorus) 

Oh, the Yield poster, it was a sight to see 

But if you weren't quick enough, it was not meant to be 

Fans lined up for hours, hoping to get a chance 

But in the end, it sold out, leaving many in a trance

(Bridge) 

Now it hangs on walls, a symbol of dedication 

A reminder of the power of anticipation 

But for those who missed out, don't you fret or weep 

For the spirit of Pearl Jam, it runs so very deep

(Chorus) 

Oh, the Yield poster, it was a sight to see 

But if you weren't quick enough, it was not meant to be 

Fans lined up for hours, hoping to get a chance 

But in the end, it sold out, leaving many in a trance

(Outro) 

So let us sing this shanty, in honor of the poster so rare 

And remember the lesson, that life is sometimes unfair 

But when it comes to Pearl Jam, we'll never lose our zeal 

For they will always be, the soundtrack of what's real.

Just learned about this poster. Looks cool. probably would have paid $50 or so for it. That's about it. I can live without it just fine. Lol.

You do, unfortunately. It's still kind of fun though.

If you put in the dimensions you can select your frame, mat, etc.

I’ve always suggest art to frames, but they’ve really raised prices. 
I used to get a poster with a single mat and upgraded to the mid tier glass (framers quality) for about $50-55. Checked last night when I saw the sale and it’s about $80 now (after the discount). Going to go with the standard plexi I guess.

Cool print, 500 is a low number with this group. I get they finally have a surplus of posters in the shop and don’t want to lose money but show posters i don’t buy unless I was there and even then, meh. I would have loved this in my office. Oh well
