BEAUTIFUL book - a must for the hardcore Pearl Jam fan July 29, 2008

This book is awesome - tons of high-quality images of the unique posters created for many, many years worth of Pearl Jam shows. If you collect those posters, you'll definitely want this book, as some of them command very high prices on the collectors' market and if you can't afford them, this is a nice way to be able to view dozens and dozens of them. Quality binding, nice coffee table book - well worth the dough, in my opinion.

I recently received my first copy of Pearl Jam vs Ames Bros and must admit, this book is incredible. The build quality is exceptional with sturdy canvas binding and exceptional print quality on each page. The work of Barry Ament and Coby Schultz is outstanding and the comments by both the artists and the band add great flavor to the creative process behind each design. As a long time collector of poster art, this book is a must have and truly demonstrates Ames Bros leadership in modern graphic design. A big thanks to Ames Bros for bringing together so many unique thoughts and images in a proper way, well done!
