One of the prettiest apps for iPad just got even better Tuesday with new support for iPhone 4’s Retina Display technology enhancing the concert and music poster app, Rock Show.

Portland-based developers Neutrinos, LLC have been steadily improving Rock Show since its initial release and with version 2.0 announced an exclusive mobile-only poster sale that sold out in just two days. Rob Banagale, Neutrinos CEO, said, “As far as we know, Guy Burwell’s 7/29/2010 Silversun Pickups poster was the first retail item that could only be bought on an iOS device, not the web.”

Rock Show lets users browse, share and order directly through the app hand-made, limited edition concert and music posters that are often hand-packed and shipped directly by the artists who created them. With over 250 posters in the current catalog, Banagale feels his company is on to a good — and growing — thing.

The posters in the gallery above are from three acclaimed designers: Nat Damm (Band of Horses, The Shins, mgmt), Jared Conner of Mexican Chocolate Design (Mars Volta), and Andy Bonner from Tone Ink (Grace Potter, Robert Randolph).

Rock Show (iTunes link) is a free universal binary app that works with iPad — and looks great on the larger screen — iPod Touch and iPhone, with incredible visual fidelity now available using the iPhone 4’s Retina Display technology.
