From expresso beans? Someone from England messages me about my ISO and offered me the RCMH NYC Burwell for 90$ TOTAL. Unfortunately, I wasn't quick enough to respond, and someone else grabbed it.

It was an eBay listing, from a search of "Guy Burwell", listed  below and separate from the other listings because it was a listing from outside the US.  It started at .99 British Pounds (GBP), I max-bidded at 45 GBP, couldn't watch it at work (blocked), but managed to survive 10 bids, closing at what amounted to $64 USD (shipping included). 

I got a PM on Expresso Beans from a dude in England re: this Burwell Red Rocks '08, but I don't know if it was the same thing.  I'm thinking it was, as the guy on EB and the guy on eBay are both photographers, from what I can tell.

I was watching that one too, it start at $1.60 US dollars and it didn't have a bid for a few days and was thinking of buying cause it still had no bids so i firgured to wait for the last day and saw that it had a few more bids so i held off.  Glad that you were able to purchase that one Johnny.  Was thinking about buying but have the Newsprint edition and the edition of it on Watercolor paper not to mention a terrible poster and print habit.  Saw that the same seller had the RCMH for sale so i contacted them but they mentioned that it was the 2nd edition so i decided not to buy.  They actually had it on ebay at first but then took it off most likely cause they made a deal on Expresso Beans.  Seemed like a nice guy, told me he was trying to gather some funds for some prints he was after.  Same seller had this nice Chuck Sperry print for the movie the Royal Tenenbaums, it ended up selling for about a third of its original price which was $200.  It was a huge print and a nice piece of artwork.

Was my top one from Burwell that i was in search of and was certainly happy to obtain it the way i did!!

Edit: I never noticed the nipple on the women in the image until i posted this close up picture.

I realize this isn't related to MMJ but I wasn't really sure where else to put this.

Here's a pretty cool time lapse of an Explosions in the Sky poster being made. (It's also my favorite all time non-MMJ poster!) Check it out

Here's the finished poster:

Yeah it was free,  I did some research and the numbers are the catalog number for the graphic.  It is a generic graphic with the lettering custom.  The pic is from the web but mine looks to be in about the same condition, staple holes and all.  I assume some of these may have been stapled to telephone poles?

CC any idea how many of these were available?  Were they sold or just for marketing.  Please tell me this is the first MMJ poster ever!  If not oh well I am too stoked to have something from the 90's.  I will never put this up for sale regardless.

they were sold at the shows. i'll make a photo of the entire set when i get a chance. they were probably the first posters. not sure how many were around, not too many i guess, everything had to fit in one suitcase, posters, tshirts, cds, snacks, bananas, oranges...

Any chance you could post that photo, CC?

John- thats great!   I would bet there are less than a dozen people with complete MMJ Burwell collections.   

What's next for you?   ;D ;D ;D

Toenail clippings!  I've got Patrick's and Bo's, so... almost halfway there!

That RCMH print is my absolute favorite print of all time. I've largely moved from prints to vinyl, but that's the one poster I would drop a lot of money on in a heartbeat.
