    I would say the Wrigley "Cracker Jack" poster. It was my first show. I had always wanted to see them, from the beginning.

    I've been dying to get the Showbox 2004. I went to buy one...three stacks on the table...they said were out and took the three stacks somewhere. No one has ever been able to tell me what happened. Saw one in a mystery box...10 club gave me no answers...just that you can't buy individual items. Still wonder what happened.

    If there was one poster left I would like but will never own it would be the 2000 Blackie.

    Mostly because of its rarity and because it looks stunning framed.

    helped a friend get this two months ago, and his frame job is immense

    as far as I know these were not actually sold at the show.
    Different look than the artists that they use now.
    I would really like to get my hands on this one.

    The 2011 EV Seattle poster by munk one...if anyone has one of those, pm me. I have all the Wrigley ones for trade too if that's preferred. Couple of others too (EV solo tours 2012, Europe 2012, last fall tour...) but I doubt any of those are valuable enough.
    I usually don't buy posters from shows I wasn't at, but I just love this one, and I'd like a memory of Seattle on my wall, since I just spent a little over a month doing research there and loved it.

    Good job Will. I just avoided what would have surely become a holygrail type poster for me - the London Police Amsterdam - apparently they had an additional 13 numbered proofs after they sold the 88 initial posters. Cheers!!!

    Cool! But I see it's out of stock again. :(
    How did you find out there were additional posters left? I'd love to have one too.

    Mine is Pittsburgh 2013. I lost the lottery, got to the merch booth too late, and my seats were pretty bad but I love the poster.

    Is the '13 better, worse, or the same as the '98 Pittsburgh? The 98 has that simple silk screen vibe but the 13 is cool as can be. I'm torn.
    I found my place......and it's alright

    I emailed them right after the show and they hooked me up. B-)

    After two mystery boxes and one mystery tube, it's still MSG II 2010 Ames (a.k.a. KONG!!!!). Someday.

    Also, a PJ20 Munk One/Maxx242 Billboard print, but that's just crazy talk. Never.
