I'm usually the first one to defend the Ames Bros., and yes, I tried to buy this poster (and failed), but what in the heck is going on!?
This poster is looking great at the bottom (floral graphics and "Hawaii" but totally falls apart at the top. What in the hell is that crap in the circle. It's a bad, bad, bad execution of a shitty image, done with awful colors.
Whoever, made the comment that it was like a worse version of their (awesome) Maui '98 poster is right on. ...and that font is not doing much for me either, although I could forgive it if the rest was done right.

This poster is one of Ames' "decent" ones this year, which really says alot. Another surfer poster. I think I've seen that Pearl Jam lettering before.

No, I didnt really try to buy one of these. $60 for an Ames? Not likely.

If you don't want that "retarded piece of fudge" I'll take it off your hands.

hey, let's keep talking about this...bostonlou wrote:nevermind
the 1st edition has the bright print... the AP has the dark one
i'll stop talking now
sorry if this has been discussed already, but...it seems like this poster has 2 distinct version in terms of color. A lot of the little jpg images floating around seem very 'pink' but I recently traded for a copy of this poster and I would describe it as more of a combination of red/fuschia, orange, and yellows. Not really as 'pink' as it appeared. I don't mind, but I was surprised - since then I've seen additional jpgs of the poster and one version seems to be the 'red' version and one still seems to be lighter shades of pink.
What gives?
gracias for any insight...
