but what the hell is that on the Hamilton poster? a walking log full of squirrels? OK?
The Hamilton one is pretty bad. And, like I already mentioned, it has zero reference to Hamilton, where I lived for many years (most of my life?). The buildings in the background don’t exist in Hamilton, nothing even close. There sure are plenty of squirrels though, lol.
The only one I like is the Ottawa and I don’t like it enough to buy it either. The rest are pretty meh.

Mystery tubes for years
They sold out of 2 of the 3 prints they dropped yesterday.
One even flipped pretty well, not that I bought it.

They sold 2 prints yesterday (St Louis and Hamilton) and one is still available in their store.
EDIT: Just to clarify, they are selling different SKUs for each print. First they sell the 10C copies that they would have sold on the website after the tour. Then after those sell out, they list the Tour copies that would have sold at the actual show. Same poster, just different SKUs for Shopify and I'm sure internal records etc. They are the exact same print.
So technically yesterday they sold out of St. Louis 10C and Tour, and Hamilton 10C. Tour copies of Hamilton are still up.

Did they show the Los Angeles / Forum print anywhere?
I think they said the last couple weren't completed or printed maybe.

Correct. LA and Oakland were never printed so they will not be shown or sold. Sperry did one, not sure on the others.

Not sure where you see analog?
I forgot to update on this. I bought a digital subscription and was able to buy a poster (Oklahoma City).

Not yet.
Just wait til you see the tubes they use. I’d suggest not ordering any prints from pearly jam larger than 18x24. You’ll receive them creased for sure with these 2” flimsy tubes. At least they use end caps

You scared me. Even went to check the size again, it’s 18x24, lol. I wouldn’t want this otherwise, lol.
I bought from them before many times. Not sure, but I think everything was that size. Never had a problem with a damaged print yet. Hopefully, the streak will continue.

"flimsy" 2" tubes lol. I've had over a hundred tubes from tenc at this point, you can always rely on them showing up undamaged.
No one wants a 24*36 in a 2" tube but how often does that even come up? Even the oversized Milton Keynes were fine.
