    @fanofzs - I did go to Wrigley, but really have all the Wrigley merch I'm after. Maybe I'm crazy to hope for the 2 ISO's above, but feel like I have to give it shot. Not every day I've got trade bait like this Thomas to offer up.

    @SkyBreaksAtDawn - Let me guess, you got a Mark 5 Fenway poster and the scary clown??? Gonna pass, thx.

    You can see the same thing I do. No signature and it's got a $499 bid, so someone valued it there. Not saying everyone does, but it only takes one.

    Ok. I do have a Feldman embellished/painted Wrigley print too. If you decide on something other than Pitt and Moline, let me know. I have other non Wrigley PJ stuff I may be able to trade. Good luck!

    good luck, OP! that variant is sweet! it's actually the only poster I have of a show that I did not attend. I have the basic print, but love it!
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    As a baseball fan I must stick to the original print. Mine is actually out getting framed.

    It's one of my 3 favorite pieces of concert memorabilia (all 3 being PJ posters of course) and I went all out with it too. My wife got me a nice gift certificate for Christmas to a local place that does great work, and we splurged on this one. I was lucky enough to score the AP, and it has a place of honor in our living room, opposite the Pendleton Skyline from the GCF.

    As my 9 year old nephew remarked "It's like two of your favorite things, Pearl Jam & Fenway all in one"

    He's a smart kid. :D

    Post a picture of the poster bud!
    My prized pj possessions are: ticket and poster from my first show (Randall's 96), nj/msg poster 98, ed ved guitar pic used during long road (my absolute favorite song), set list from show 50, and the Fenway poster.

    Sorry to hijack your thread op. Good luck with your trade!!

    I love this print. Very tempting but I'm trying to stick to my guns and not start buying posters from shows I didn't attend. Once those flood gates open its tough to turn back lol

    So cool. I wish one of the Wrigley prints would have incorporated Wrigley Field into the poster more (not a huge fan of the Klausen) . It would be the same for me, having 2 of my favorite things (Wrigley and PJ) in one!

    I hear that; for such an iconic venue, it's odd that it didn't inspire better posters between the three shows they've played there. The ivy alone could have made for some better themes. The Faile had a cool concept to incorporate the El & some Chicago characters but the execution fell short IMO. The Cracker Jack is a phenomenal poster, but that's a baseball thing, not a Wrigley thing. That's definitely a missed opportunity. (In all fairness though, I think the Catch is the only Fenway poster that lives up to the shows or venue. The rest could have been much better)

    My wife spotted the frame at the last minute before we finalized the order which was a great find, it definitely brings out the "Pearl Jam" lettering & background behind the old North Church. After getting it done, I realized I don't love the green matte. Although it matches the poster, I think it's too much green. If I can find a nice blue matte to match the socks & hat on the player, I will see about changing it.



    Apologies OP, but at least we're bumping it. (Edited to fix link)
