Hello everyone.  Yes, new member and first time poster... so hello!  And I have a poster to sell if anyone is interested.

Purchased on 6/29/98 at the UC, the poster is in very good condition.  Almost always stored flat (framed, though rolled for a short while many years ago) it is without fading, yellowing, tape or holes.  There is some light ruffling along the long edges, and some rubbing on the black areas from the frame.  I've done my best to show these in the attached photos and I'll be happy to provide more on request.  I'll also include the ticket stub from the show for authenticity but the stub isn't in great shape.  I'm asking $2,000 and I'll cover shipping and insurance.  Please PM or email me if you're interested. 

Also as I'm a newb I understand if some have misgivings and I'll be happy to chat via zoom to confirm this is legit and answer any other questions.

    Welcome to the forum!  That's a great poster.  You shouldn't have a problem selling that one.  Good luck with your sell.

    I’ll trade you my Benaroya Hall set for it. That’s my holy grail!

    Every time I see the poster I recall exiting the venue after the show and noticing the very large stack in the foyer yet to sell.

    😂

    Thanks!  I've heard about this community for years and never bothered to have a peek until I needed to unload this poster.  Looks like a healthy and positive group.  Though to confess I'm more of a rabid AIC fan myself :)

    Wish I could accommodate, need the moolah unfortunately.  The Benaroya Hall set is awesome too!

    We had crap seats behind the stage and it's the only PJ concert I've been to, but god damn that was a great show.  Ed was wearing a Rodman Jersey IIRC...

    I thought the same thing in Indy that year...Why would someone buy that?  (I now have one framed and hanging on my basement wall)

    Awesome!!! I hope this gets done. Chris is a great guy and does so much for so many others. As much as I want one of these, I just spent my extra cash on a grail item.

    OP - good on you for donating this item for the betterment of the WY/MT areas.

    Moving on dudes. Taking our girls to Disney this fall. Would rather spoil them than have it. I have my custom fridge magnet of the print and that will just have to do! 😎

    Decided to use the money for a family vacation this fall. My girls are only little once, and I’m into making memories!
