..appears I now have a tidy fortune in signed and remarque posters even though I bought them because I loved the them, not for appreciation.

Good for you!

I liked the posters from the start, but couldn't afford them during the early years. Of course, the early ones are now the most valuable. I think they are also the best.

The early Jazzfest stuff was the best. I'll never forget one of the night concerts on the river listening to Stan Getz as the boat steamed away on a beautiful evening.

I really am not into posters now, even though I can finally afford them.

How is the artist chosen each year?

I have no idea.

how you doing carranza2?

Doing OK, all things considered. One of the lucky ones, though I am getting tired of seeing all the debris and destruction.

I didn't buy any of those posters but I do have a nice silkscreen one for the closing of Pontchartrain Beach, which I intend to keep. And boxes and boxes of New Orleans and Louisiana literature, mostly 19th century, that I will donate to the right library.
