Art by (and SIGNED and numbered 156/400 in pencil by) Jim & Rolo Evans (TAZ), medium-thick oak tag stock hand-pulled silkscreen poster (printed with extra-thick enamel day-glo ink) is in STUNNING mint/ near mint (A/A- to A-) condition; just the SLIGHTEST trace of surface wear (a few soft scuffs and light scratches), otherwise fine. INCREDIBLE-looking Buddhist-themed TAZ silkscreen from the second edition of the semi-annual benefit concert for Tibetan independence (we also have the 1996 version listed separately). Here's the Beastie Boys performing "Sure Shot" on 6/8: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJjuwutaCxQ
