It's a Moby Dick related poster - not sure which character it is as I've not read the book. On the show poster it has parts of the story scribbled over it. It's certainly not my favourite poster, but I decided to have a poster of each show I've gone to. I bought this pair of handbills back in 2011 and I think I paid around $80 for the pair, though some of the money was a donation. I think the user harvestgirl may have one of these still.

It's Captain Ahab, and the main show poster was kind of poor, but same deal, went to the show, had to have the poster. Sigh. I think RJ may have some of these left, I picked mine up in 2010 from him, he wouldn't let me buy them specifically but he threw them in when I spent a lot of money on other posters.

There was a full show poster that went with the handbills. And yes, Rob doesn't sell handbills..

Interesting. Also, Iv'e never really seen another of rob's posters with this style of illustration, it certainly stands out among them as different
