What is your Poster "Holy Grails"

edited November 2008 in The Porch
I know that a lot of people started collecting posters because of PJ myself included. It usually starts with the shows you went to and then snowballs from there.

Now since that happened to me with my first print in 96 (Ward, Randalls Island) I am always trying to get one that I want and trying to expand it to other bands and artists. I have found many over the years but the ones below I am still looking for or saving money up for etc... So what is everyone looking for and what do you consider your "Holy Grail"?


For me the list goes like this:

Pearl Jam Atlantic City 05 Klausen - Pink (Holy Grail)
http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/28723

Pearl Jam Washington DC 06 Klausen
http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/38168

Ben Harper Sasquatch 06 EMEK - Grey Sky (Holy Grail)
http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/36959

Audioslave LA 05 EMEK
http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/26030

White Stripes Los Angeles 07 Jones
http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/62628

Stone Temple Pilots Phoenix 96 EMEK
http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/2282

QOTSA Atlanta 05 Hampton
http://www.expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/23137


Probably never be able to afford these below but I can still dream:

White Stripes Glace Bay 07 Jones

Decemberists Amsterdam 07 EMEK -

    ha, I didn't know they made them either and when I saw it I had to have it even though it was the before the show started.

    I told my wife that my Randalls Island poster will be buried with me. It made it out of the Pit in the rain and mud(mind you I lost a leg on my jeans somehow) as well as like 5 or 6 different moves and the only thing wrong with it is the tac holes in the white border. I aslo told her that if I am cremated that it will burn with me. Those two shows still sit in my mind as the best shows I have ever seen.
