Hmm, sounds wrong to me. Lately I bought the Berlin poster on eBay. Sure the guy took it from the box set. It has the raised tongue on the bottom right corner and is numbered. I suspect all of them come that way. Not sure about the 2105-16 posters though. But I doubt they're printed on regular paper, my guess. Good luck.

Hi Harm, you are right about the size. It's slightly different and there's no texture like the posters sold at the gigs. Wonder if the 2016 posters are the specifications as the 2014 lithos?

Hmm, I think they are selling regular posters at the venues and the nice quality lithos online.
Thank you for this comparative info on the same poster.Quote
Hairball
I bought two San Diego "litho's" during the Zip Code tour - one the day before concert at stadium merch stand for $50, and the other a month or so later when they had the litho/t-shirt bundle sale online for $75.
Both are hand pencil numbered and are of the exact quality (thick paper, etc.), but they are from different editions. The first is from an edition of 650, and the other is from an edition of 350.
I'm pretty sure the 650 edition was from the concert, and the 350 was ordered online.
At any rate, they're awesome 'litho's'...or posters, and while I'm not an expert on the litho printng process, I see no reason to think they aren't what they say they are.
For what it's worth, the one I bought at the concert has a very small spec. (the size of a pinhead) of ink missing along one of the border lines - could have happened during transport.
I also have several of the litho's from the '90's you mention Doc (with the printed on signatures?), but all are currently in storage so can't inspect closely right now.
I want to know, Thank you!Quote

Doc and anyone that wants to know. The 14 On Fire Litho measures 18 X 24 inches. The one's in the box set are 22 & 3/4" high by 17" wide. The extra space on height is for the embossed tongue. Greetings.

I purchased both of the poster/lithos at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway concert, the one with the black background with the venue or city tongue and the name of the opening act was numbered, the one with the "art" on it was not. I purchased the one with the black background and Buddy Guy on it at Milwaukee and it was numbered. I purchased the Detroit "art" hood ornament poster from the Stones online store and it is not numbered. Not sure about the rest of them but this may be the approach that was taken, ie, "art" posters not numbered.
No I didn't get any from the 14 On Fire, but would like to get the Detroit one.Quote

White8, do you have any 14 On Fire Lithos (bought at concert) to compare with those in the box set. I'm curious if there's any difference in color. I know the paper texture, size and embossed tongue make them slightly different. Those sets must be beautiful I'm sure.
