Original 1st printing 11 x 17" 1976 poster celebrating the first anniversary of Antone's ("Austin's Home of the Blues") in Austin, TX. Designer unknown (poster was originally distributed through the Austin Sun), medium glossy-coated index stock poster is in beautiful mint/near mint to near mint (A/A- to A-) condition; aside a couple of tiny corner tip bends and a nearly-invisible surface scratch or two, this example is just about as sharp/crisp as they come. Neat-looking early Antone's poster, featuring a great photo of blues harmonica legend Little Walter, along with a list of performers who appeared at the club during its first year (Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, Jimmy Reed, John Lee Hooker, Albert King, Bobby Blue Bland and MANY more).
