New Orleans Jazz Fest Posters

Anybody have any of these beautiful prints?  They are printed in limited quantities (several thousand) that are numbered and sold only at the festival each year.

I was a law student at Tulane Law School from 92-95.  I picked up the 1993 poster but stupidly passed up the 1995 "blue dog" poster for $45, which is now worth $600+.

Attached are the pics of the posters.  Here is a website with the pictures as well:

Here's a similar poster from the "New Orleans Burlesque Festival." I rather like it and it's not too risque to hang up on the ol' wall. Here's the official website but I can't find this particular poster for sale. A lot of people on the official Facebook website are complimenting this poster and asking how to buy it but no answers are provided.

Yes, I agree with Holiday, the most fascinating thing about these posters is their use of color. Very vivid and eye catching!

The official 2011 Jazz Fest poster (19x36), edition of 10,000 with some other variants.  I like the poster and I like Jimmy Buffett, so I got it.  A friend of mine actually got it for me at the festival but apparently it's still available online for $72 here.  Some years these sell out and they sell for hundreds of dollars but you never know.
