1987 POSTER SIZE LIVE LP COVER ART

Post by audreywells »

hi there:

i've been lucky enough to find a really cool poster of the 1987 JA live album. it's crazy...it's huge and hangs vertically, but the format is still 'album', which kind of doesn't make sense to me.

anyway, i'm thinking about giving it to a friend of mine that lives in japan but when i look it up, i can't seem to find the value as i don't see this artwork in any format other than as the LP.

anyone know why, or what it's worth?

again, i've always loved the image (and the album) but don't want to blow it by not insuring it for enough, if something happens to it en route (unfortunately, always a possibility...)

thanks for anyone's input or feedback.

peace and love,

audrey

I'm not sure if I still have them somewhere, but by 1990 I managed to have a gigantic poster of each album cover. I don't know the actual size, but they're rectangular and they might be around six feet tall. Is this what we're talking about? I've got:

xxx
NS
Ritual

I'm not sure where all of this stuff is. Somewhere I've got those cardboard mock LPs that they'd hang in record store windows for new releases. I've got the Deadicated one and the first P4P album. I'm not a collector of this type of stuff, so if I didn't get it when it first appeared, I don't have it, which makes me feel very attached to it--even if I don't know where most of it is at any given time. :lol:

Hi Audry, welcome to the site.

I'm not sure I know exactly which poster you're talking about but it sounds as though you mean something similar to this one.

Can you describe what is different or better yet take a picture of it?
Perhaps give us an exact measurement?

As with anything it's only worth what someone is willing to pay for it but if it's something really rare it could be worth a pile of money to a collector.

I don't think insurance is to much and if you put it in a nice tube it should arrive safely.

If so keep an eye out on ebay.
I've seen one like it sell there in the last year or two.
I hope you can track one down.

yes Mike is this! of course!! but it hadn't the part below the band cause it was broken up pulling off by the wall! Thanks for the suggest: i could think about to searching for and buying it but i'm sure that it would not be the same!! Sometimes I wonder why some mistakes are made...
