    You guys are nuts, the Klausen is sick

    This one's just not for me. Klausen is a beast but ironically I prefer the Bogota sitting in the shop to this tour's. SA 2005 and Dublin 2010 go down as 2 of the GOATs for me and surely he's gotta be one of the stadium posters.

    Something about that Lexington poster just has a vintage B-Rate Grindhouse look to it. I don't buy posters from shows that I don't attend, but the Lexington poster has tempted me on more than one occasion.

    I know this was only a Spring poll but if we did a whole Lightning Bolt tour poll I think the winner would be "The Catch" anyone agree?

    Lexington is hands down the best of the tour IMO. Nice job by Ames there!

    I originally voted for the Ken Taylor Columbia / Bat poster.
    I'm sticking with this artist...
    but I think I like his Wrigley / Eagle poster better!!!

    For me it's Ottawa, Toronto 2, Lexington but since Ottawa wasn't a choice I went with Toronto 2. I really like Mark 5's poster here. It's not as busy as the 2013 Buffalo poster (which i also like) and it looks like something that I can hang on my wall without questioning my sanity (Toronto 1 or that 2011 Vancouver poster).

    "The Catch" does nothing for me. I really don't get the appeal. Same with the Wrigley Faile.

    Fenway Thomas is most relevant/literal to the show's locations, love the owl from MSG1 for the detail but no NY feel to it, but as a Chicagoan the Faile for Wrigley has the best blend of local pop culture/references to make it my favorite.

    Idk why the NY Welker gets such little love.

    Maybe it's too cartoonish, but that is a sight to behold in person. I love it & will eventually frame & hang it even though I wasn't at the show.
    Same for the Ottowa, I can't believe that's still in the shop.


    Fenway Thomas is the best of '16 IMO, but I'm also biased: I'm a Sox fan & was at both shows.

    Yeah Fenway Thomas wins for me.

    I'm with you on both of these!
    None of the Fenway posters were "frame-able" for me.
    I really liked Kevin Shuss's attempt at a Hatch Show Print!!
    The Taylor, Klausen & Feldman Wrigley posters are better than the Faile for me!!

    I think Klausen had the best Wrigley.

    Faile was pretty cool, but I could never hang it.

    (No, it isn't any fancy framing.)

    Got this one hand delivered on Saturday by DD himself. (Thanks for grabbing it for me and saving it from the rain, Dave!) I love the poster and it was the ONLY Wrigley poster I would consider purchasing. I would have purchased "The Catch" if we had a Wrigley version.
