    Has anyone received an email from Emek yet telling you that you won? Might still be too early I suppose..

    I haven't yet received anything, good or bad.

    I went with 64. The number of extinct animals listed on the back of the poster.

    There were 63, no?

    I counted about ten times. Few times got different #'s, eyes are not as good as they use to be. Had someone else count and they came up with 64 as well.

    I have always wondered how many posters are actually printed for an average PJ show?

    500? 700? 1000?

    my guess would be 1,000... 100-200 to the artist... 100-200 online... 50-100 for archives... 500 for the show

    does anybody have any info or educated guess on these numbers?

    I would tweak that a little:

    Ames & Brad are allotted 200 to be signed as AP while other artists are allotted 100 to be signed as AP. The band archives 50 while 10C is allotted 250 for sale. 800 sold at the show.
    So you're thinking 1300-1500?
    1800 were sold at the philly show.. Someone tweeted the photo of the posters being delivered.
    See 2 posts above lol
    Yes. I meant to add to it.

    I know other artists don't get the actual print at the show. They have others made up for their AP's.

    Where's BK? I'm sure he could weigh in on this.
    That's the first time I'm hearing that... I assumed everything was printed at the same time except for special circumstances, for example I think Klausen got permission to reprint the SLC 2009 print since it didn't turn out to his liking in the 1st run?
    I'm pretty sure that all of the posters are all printed at the same time, too.
    It would be cost prohibitive to do a run of just 100-200 posters, they get the best price when printing large quantities like 2,000 posters.
    If 1,800 are available at the concert than I would guess that 100 are kept for the band and/or Ten Club and the other 100 go to the artist as part of his/her compensation.

    Might want to contact them. I received the your order is in queue for shipping (with tracking #) e-mail on May 26, and my poster was delivered today.

    I went with 30 with the EMEK lottery.

    "Many scientists believe we are in the midst of a sixth mass extinction event caused by ourselves. Based on population numbers required to maintain genetic viability; it is estimated that as many as 30 percent of plant and animal species may become extinct within the next 100 years."

    It'll probably be some other #.

    I thought it was odd too that the artists would print them up again but I assure you it has happened multiple times.

    Interesting choice. So many different #'s it could be. Good Luck!!!

    Now if they just don't leave us hanging all day or longer.

    I went with 65, since it had been that many million years since the dinosaur extinction.

    I didn't even think about researching anything about the poster. I went with 19 for my little brothers birthday. He's not yet extinct so he's probably not on Emek's radar.
