  I can’t believe this is going for $2500. I bought this in a thrift store in Seattle for $20. I had it in a tube for a really long time before finally framing it. Mine doesn’t have the red lines through the letters though. So I wonder what edition this is. 

  I was curious about why my poster looked different from the one on the Ames site in terms of not having the red lines through the letters. So I sent them an email to ask about it. Here is what they said. I think it is pretty cool.

  That IS pretty cool! Thanks for seeking and sharing this info from Ames. As a serious poster collector, I like learning new things like this.

  Can someone tell me what the difference between AP1 and AP2 are? They were priced the same.

  From AI ...

  
  

  Ames Bros. posters marked "AP" (Artist Proof) and "AP2" (Second Artist Proof) are both limited-edition prints from the original print run, with "AP2" referring to additional first-run prints that were returned to the artists, then signed and numbered, and sold from their archives. Both AP and AP2 versions are typically signed and numbered by the artists and are not reprints, although they are distinct from the main edition prints sold at shows. 

  Key Differences and Similarities:

  • Source: AP and AP2 posters both originate from the original print run and are from the artists' personal archives.
  • Significance: Both are considered valuable collector's items due to their limited nature and direct artist involvement.
  • Condition: Archive posters, including AP and AP2, are typically stored in flat files and are in mint or near-mint condition unless otherwise noted.
  • Availability: While APs and AP2s were often sold directly by the artists or through their archives, other print versions might have been sold at shows or through other retailers.
