Pearl Jam “Boston Away” 2018 Variant Edition Poster by Brad Klausen – Limited #81/109, Hand-Signed & Inscribed – Professionally Custom Framed with Deep Purple Velvet Mat & Personal Message!
Description:
Fenway fireworks in poster form! This is the sought-after Variant Edition of Brad Klausen’s “away game” tribute for Pearl Jam’s 2018 Boston shows – reimagining the band’s road trip as a high-stakes baseball showdown between “Boston” and “The Seattle RiotBolts.”
The design explodes with Fenway-inspired ticket stub energy: perforated “ADMIT ONE” borders, “BLEACHERS” and “RAIN CHECK” panels, vibrant stadium graphics in electric blue, yellow, purple, and fiery orange. A Pearl Jam-ified batter (guitar-bat hybrid, crown helmet, lightning accents) crushes one out inside a massive turntable groove, with exploding baseball-speakers, crowd confetti, and stadium lights. “BOSTON” vs. “THE SEATTLE RIOT BOLTS” splits the layout with crown and riot motifs, while massive “PEARL JAM” lettering dominates the right. Bottom includes show dates (9/2/18 & 9/4/18), “AT BAT,” “BALL,” “STRIKE,” and glowing accents. This variant features the deep purple/velvet colorway for extra drama.
Brad Klausen’s signature inscription – a poetic reflection on creativity as a mysterious, powerful force that changes lives and flows through music. He thanks Jeff, Mike, Ed, Stone & Matt, signs “Sincerely, BradK,” and dates it July 2018. Above: adapted “CALLING BOSTON HOME” (for the away theme) with stitched borders and “YES & I WAS THERE TOO…” – a personal touch for fans who caught the shows.
