    Looking closely now - (and with the caveat that this is entirely based on memory until I get home) the EV doesn't look right - I think the one I have the "font" is more ...primitive, rougher somehow. Anyway, will definitely double check tonight.

    If you must sell though, I'd recommend unframing the whole thing (much easier and cheaper shipping the poster that way) and keeping the real gem - Eddie's signature. Then, auction the poster on eBay for a starting bid of say, $199. You can always relist it at a lower price if it doesn't sell but I bet it does! There are a TON more Pearl Jam/Eddie Vedder fans/collectors on eBay than here, for sure. Good luck to you!

    Finally...the poster is actually a "version" of a poster that was released in support of CCFA. There are 9 total versions..each of which can be seen here: http://expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/44670 and them hitting the drop down menu in the upper right hand corner. The one you have is the "Art Print Edition". You have #100 out of #150. I have #148 out of #150. Hello to a fellow club member!! ;)

    I would not sell what you have unless there was a life in the balance. It is beautifully framed and the note makes it yours...

    Any pics of the Ed used zippo?
    Thinking the same thing lol
    i'm guessing its the ITW one (surfer pose)
    How much does the OP need to offset the poster? I'm in for chipping in a few sheckles if everyone else is to help him with the expenses and allow him to keep said poster

    Fantastic story.  Though you don't need the pieces of things to remember the story, they are just too cool for you to part with.  As a times three member of the Tiki poster club, I'll chip in for you to keep it.

    do you have the Blue and Orange one?  that's the one i need and it's a ghost.. the orange one was given to me by a very special person, whom also got me the tan one back for me after I traded it for a 98 Virginia Beach.  it's been my goal to get all four for that person.

    rambling aside, I'm in for $50 Bill for you to keep your cool stuff.
