Original 1st printing 27&3/8 x 21" concert poster for New Atlantis appearing with Jomo on 7/25-26/1969 and Shiva's Head Band appearing with Onion Creek on 8/1-2/1969, both shows held at the Vulcan Gas Company in Austin, TX (also list's Shiva's (Head Band) and Ramon Ramon & the Four Daddy-O's on "Weds.-no booz" in the bottom left margin) Art by JFKLN (Jim Franklin), image ("Armadillo Melon") is an un-numbered image in the VG/Vulcan Gas Company series. Thick flat vellum stock poster is in good/decent (B/B-) condition; staple holes (all four corners and top/bottom center with a couple of tiny pulls in the top/bottom right corners), a 1 x 1/2" tape pull in the upper left corner, light creasing, a few stray stains in all four corners and on the second "leg" of the melon, a couple of small edge tears, a bit of light creasing and a few soft bends around the edges, a tiny black marker scratch covering the "s" of "Shiva's, a couple of tiny nicks in the right center margin and a few tape pulls and some stains on the reverse, otherwise fine. MEGA-SCARCE 1968 Vulcan Gas poster that as far as I can tell, has only been seen by a select few hard-core Texas/Vulcan collectors- this could very well be one of only a few existing examples, and is quite possibly the ONLY one that has ever been offered to the public. VERY, VERY uncommon/hard-to-find VGC image with GREAT colors and a truly weird JFKLN design. According to one source; "You have probably never seen this poster offered for sale before and it is likely that you will NEVER see it offered again. This is your chance- if you collect VGC or iconic psychedelic posters, go for it!"
