    I really appreciate this. I painted a mural of this poster on my bedroom wall when I was a teenager. My parents let it stay till this day. One day I hope to get one too.


    Beautiful!!! I hope you do.

    I’d even take a replica. Guy on eBay is asking $1k and it looks like he used it as a dart board and is ripped and torn. Crazy asking price for the condition

    Looks like they got it in college and had it up in their dorm room. I have quite a few posters kicking around in similar condition (none that would be worthing anything even if they were pristine, but still).

    One Friday morning in 2013 I ran a search on eBay and stumbled across a seller in NJ listing what appeared to be someone’s collection. By Friday afternoon we were discussing over the phone and it turns out two brothers had collected their posters together and when one passed away the other sold off his collection. The next day I was in NJ picking up ~75 posters I wanted of which roughly 50 were ‘96 and ‘98 PJ posters. We agreed on $75 each and I carefully drove back with them. One of two jackpot eBay finds I’ve stumbled upon over the years.

    Considering one sold on eBay a little while ago for over 2k that was in great condition, that one on there right now isn’t too far off… I’d say a tad high still

    I have most of them but haven’t looked at them in years. They’re all stored in a flat file off site. I know I sold a few almost immediately: someone wanted the Nirvana Kozik and I wasn’t going to frame it and he wasn’t going to leave me alone lol.

    Don't happen to have my "holy grail" of Sacramento 98 in that haul do you?

    Would u part with the Boston 98? I have some good stuff to trade. I wonder if Ames would ever do reissues?

    Glen Hansard might be the best they have ever had. Ben Harper was good but Glen takes the #1 spot, was incredible!
    I was amazed at how good he sounded, didn’t expect to enjoy an opener that much

    Glen's own show was one of the best concerts I have ever been to.

    That wall mural is amazing.
