    I don't think that story is entirely true.

    The band did not sanction the poster to have nipples showing I thought, so they screen printed them on?

    400 or so out there?  Still not the rarest.

    Are we looking for rarest or most desired/expensive?

    I wouldnt want that Zaius on my wall for instance, I dont care if there are 1 of them.

    Rarest may also be the 1/1 Atlantic City NJ 05 Klausen variant, now on ebay for $2k.

    Variants shouldn't count.  You would have 1000 "test prints" thrown into the mix then...

    I think you're right about the Ames Merriweather.

    What about that Vote For Change poster that came with those dvds? I think only 25 or 50 were made.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Probably the clown. Didn't everyone just throw theirs away when they got it in the mystery box? It has to be rare now.

    My recollection from that time is a rumor that Kim of the Fastbacks (the opening act that night) saw the poster that night and thought it was offensive.  She told PJ how she felt and they stopped sales.  I was there that night and have the poster.  It was definitely on sale at the show with other official merchandise.  I have seen the estimates of 400 but also seem to remember estimates of about twice as many.  I also think the remaining stock was ultimately available from 10 Club after the tour.

    BRAD actually did two different 1/1 of the 05 Atlantic City prints, this one on eBay and the other is on my wall. The two have slightly different colors. He sold these on eBay with the proceeds going to help out his printing company he was using at the time

    Anyone have a pic of the poster? I'd love to see what Kim from the Fastbacks found so offensive. Surely it wasn't just because of nipples?

    Huh. Who would have thought that a member of the Fastbacks would be a huge prude? :lol:

    In
     the Ames book there's a bit more background I seem to recall. Something about Eddie being really unhappy with it and that the image came from a porno mag. I d have to get the book out to be sure.

    If they stole the image of the woman from a porno mag, then I understand why there would be a problem....
