Lio Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Thanks for the reference, I was wondering about that. I got the shirt. Bought it outside. Wasn't planning on buying the litho anyway, but I asked if they had any left. They didn't, but he said they'd only gotten 10 copies, so it's no wonder they sold out quickly.

Yeah, the version with red is like the shirt, but it only says Paris below, not the date, which is printed on the back as usual. The red is less bright though, it looks more pinkish on the shirt. Just found out the the shirt is glow in the dark Edited July 8, 2017 by Lio added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaguns1982 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Does anyone want a Ned Kelly, Melbourne litho? Looking to trade... also have both Brisbane ones to trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexpro Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 None of the European lithos (bar London) have showed up on eBay... Are folks flipping them elsewhere? Or simply not buying for resale? Love the Paris litho but don't see any for sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done, I must have missed that one (or it had gone real quick) How much did you pay if you dont mind my asking? Few London ones are still on ebay for some exorbitant prices, clearly sellers get too greedy with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, at least he's not trying to sell them for the real ones Think of it, this is something GNR merch dept could do themselves - put print to order cheap litho copies online... I'd rather pay to the band and the artist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papalaz Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 £299 which is outrageous but it doesn't seem there'll be many available. I got my London 1 pretty cheap so I don't feel so bad about spending the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather pay to the band and the artist He has made about $515.00 so far and I say good for him. They are a little smaller than the original prints and he isn't trying to pass them off as genuine (unlike some other eBay seller we have discussed). The only thing questionable is that the original artist isn't getting paid for the use of their image, but the marketing people are more to blame for this than the eBay seller. There is no reason the official merch people couldn't find a printer and offer variants of the original gig posters for sale after the gigs, or allow the artist to offer variants on their own to sell like other shops do. The only artist who has done this was Sara Ray with her Rocket Queen print and that seems a little peculiar... I wonder if there is some sort of agreement that they won't do that and that is why we haven't seen anything else by her at the other gigs? Whatever is going on has made the secondary market explode for GNR prints compared to prints by other bands. Would really love to know the logic behind it all, especially when you factor in the extremely low print runs for some of the European shows with the insane demand for some of this artwork.

xBrownstonex Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) They really should stick with Arian buhler and fire the other guy. Why put two.members on the litho that aren't even there?

amaninjapan Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 You guys are being way too rough I think. I think it looks very cool and shows a little respect to the tradition and history of the group. It doesn't scream rock n' roll to me so it's not going to make my top five but I definitely like it for its retro appeal. Two thumbs up for sure.

Lio Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I really like the design, but I don't like it as a specific show litho. I would rather they just had that as a general litho or poster. I don't think it fits in the series of these lithos, that's my only 'problem' with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lithos have never had any underlying theme so I think it fits just as much any other. It's a more-than-worthy addition to the NITL series for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
