    I was doing some reorganizing the other day and it's interesting how the vast majority of posters today are strictly 18x24. All bands, not just Pearl Jam. So many oddball dimensions from 15-20 years ago. The ones that were really getting my ass were 18.5x24 or 18x24.5.

    yeah, glad to see I can frame something and swap it out relatively easy with the same dimensions, but those slightly off sizes are killer

    almost like grownup baseball cards

    They added 5 more posters at the bottom including (2) 2012 Manchester variants.
    I noticed that also, but then I also noticed if you’re on the page that says ‘Current Ames Bros Favorites’ click above that on the gold colored banner for ‘FULL COLLECTION HERE’ you’ll find all five of the Manchester 2012 variants and quite a few others not on the Favorites page. The full collection page you have to click on each individual poster for the pricing.

    That's interesting - seems odd they don't have everything linked together.  I would have never checked that and there are some sweet posters in there.

    If it's included in August is there any chance East Lansing 98 is cheaper than Missoula 98 was at $3,500?
    Went back in Ebay completed sales - one sold on a 7-10 day auction at the end of March.  S/N artist's edition out of 350.  Reputable seller - final price was $2375.  Things usually go for a bit less on auction rather than buy it now or higher price/offer listing.  I think Ames will list it for $3500.

    Anyone know how much State College was?
    $300
    Thanks, not too bad compared to some others. Still glad I already have one on my wall.
    Just an FYI about State College, you will be receiving an AP2.  Not sure if that matters to anyone.

    I had to sell this one back in the day, but I wouldn't mind getting one again one day. Can't swing that amount, but glad to see they do come available now and again!

    The 2 MSG 2008 posters up today say regular edition but are signed and numbered to 100 which is the artist edition ??   
    I assume you’re right about this actually being an artist edition they were selling because I have one I got from the show and it’s not numbered, 306 collectors of the first show edition on expressobeans and 142 sales meaning that the regular edition has to be more than 100

    I bought both show editions at MSG and neither was signed or numbered. Sold them as a pair years ago for less than the price of one of these. And any user on Ebeans can claim to own anything so I take the amounts and sale number with a grain of salt

    July ... 

    The sale begins Tuesday, July 15th around 10AMish PST, and wraps up end-of-day on July 16th.
  • demetriosdemetrios Posts: 96,873

    FAQs

    When is this happening?
    The sale begins Tuesday, July 15th around 10AMish PST, and wraps up end-of-day on July 16th.

    Are these reprints?
    No. We have carefully maintained a stored archive of each and every poster we've ever created. 

    Are you offering all of the posters in your archive?
    No. Only posters from shows that occurred in April will be for sale. And not every poster we’ve ever designed will be available. 

    How many are available of each poster for sale?
    At least one.

    Will they be at original pricing?
    No. Pricing will be at or near market value. 

    Should I get in touch to complain or haggle on the price?
    No. Go outside and enjoy your day. So will we. 

    Are these legit?
    Heck yes! The posters are all from the original run/edition. After looking around at what's available in the market, we see a lot of fake signatures. This is a chance to buy directly from the actual artists and guarantee authenticity. 

    What kind of condition are the posters in?
    Everything available is in mint or near mint condition (unless otherwise noted). Keep in mind that even though the posters have been carefully stored away and treated with the utmost care, they are all hand crafted items. Because of this, they are often a little bit unique in and of themselves and a little different from each other. We find that to be a beautiful thing. We've worked with dozens of different printers over the years, and each has their own style, ink and paper stock. That said, we won't put anything up for sale with dog-ears, creases, marks etc... and if we do, we will make a note of it. Otherwise assume it's in M/NM condition. 

    How long will the sale last?
    The sale will last for 2 days or until the posters are all sold out. All of the posters will be made available on the 1st day of the sale around 10am.

    Will all the posters be put up for sale at the same time?
    Yes.

    Does this archive sale include t-shirts?
    No. Right now this is poster specific, but we will be releasing more older tee designs over the next few months. 

    How will the posters ship?
    All will ship fully insured in a sturdy tube via whatever premium shipping service you chose. 

    How long until my poster ships?
    Please allow 2-3 weeks before orders are processed and begin to ship. You will receive a shipping notice when your poster is packaged and ready to ship. 

    Will you offer returns?
    No, we will not. All sales are final. All shipments will be fully insured against any damage that could occur during shipping, 

    Can I cancel an order I placed by accident or that I changed my mind on?
    No. Because this is a short sales window of 2 days, if you buy it, it's yours. To ask us to cancel after isn't fair to us or other people who are interested in the poster. Please make up your mind before you buy. 

    Will you ship outside of the US and Canada? 
    No, we will only be shipping archive prints to the US and Canada at this time. 

    Can I combine multiple orders?
    No. In an effort to expedite orders and stay organized, individual orders will be shipped as such. 

    See ya Tuesday!

    Someone paid $5000 for the 98 Dallas.  The market has taken it in the shorts in the last 15 months but the 98's seem to be the outlier.

    Best archive sale Ames has had so far. I really wanted that 98 San Diego - but that 10 seconds of deliberation cost me (well save me actually lol). Congrats to the person that snatched it up!

    I think it was $2600.  Not positive.  Things went quickly and I was in the process of buying the 2006 Gorge for $200 - thought that was a really good deal.

    Would love that 98 Portland. I was 15 years old, at my second PJ show. But at $1,000? Can't do it.

    Completely agree.  Lots of goodies from 98 and beyond.  I wish I had $10k laying around.....
