Default Rare Tusk Poster

I used to work for Fleetwood Mac. Attached is a poster made for the TUSK album that incorporates some elements created by the artist Peter Beard for the interior album cover. I understand the band members each got one poster and then the plates were destroyed because Warner Records didn't like it. I got a copy from the printer. I have never seen this anywhere else and cannot find it on the internet. I am interested in any further information. does anyone know its value and where might be a good place to sell it?

You used to work with Fleetwood Mac?! Lucky you! Unfortunately, I have no idea about the value of your piece. Maybe someone here would be interested in buying it!

I am very interested. It's beautiful. Don't know what it's worth, but I'm very interested. Did I say I'm interested? I want it. But ofcourse, not to any price.

I've seen this poster on eBay, but only twice in the past 10 years or so. I've always wanted one, but both times mangaged to get outbid. I don't recall it being that much money, maybe 50-75 dollars?

Good luck!

I think I may have one of those posters as well. Bought from Sam Ketejian in CA in the 90's though I think its in some tube someplace. Its an ok poster to me. I don't know any info about it either don't recall what I paid for it either too. I say I think cause well when there rolled up you just don't recall everything.

I've seen it on eBay as well. It certainly didn't go for more than the 4 ft. by 4 ft. Rumours promo poster... those typically go for $200-300... Don't think you'd get much more than that.

On another note... Pierre, didnt you sell me a "Mirage" cover piece about 7 or 8 years ago?

I have this same piece. From what I have been told, they only printed 500 lithographs. It is rare, but I do not know it's current value should you have one of the original 500 lithos.
