Good things come in small packages

Some of you may remember The White Stripes camera promotion that Aluminium Level Club 91* member Philip R. and I went sheepshit for. Well, guess what? We were indeed two of the first 333 to buy both cameras and received a never-before-available poster designed by artist Rob Jones. Mine arrived yesterday, and here's a crooked, fuzzy picture I took of it (Numbered 179/279). That's S.L. Clemens, or Mark Twain to us kids. Here's the cool part: It's from a show that never took place. They were supposed to play, but Meg White had that weird breakdown for reasons unknown (coughchokesextapecoughchoke) and the Stripes put the kibosh on the rest of the tour. There were two other posters that the other 331 could have received. One's on eBay right now, going for a cool 132 bucks. But you'll have to pry mine from my cold, dead hands. Or offer me money.
