Original 1st printing 16&7/8 x 11&1/4" concert poster for the 7/7-8/1970 GRAND OPENING of the world-famous Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin, TX, featuring performances by Shiva's Headband, the Hub City Movers and Whistler. Art by Jim Franklin (JFKLN), medium-thick flat index stock poster is in good/decent (B to B/B-) condition; a set of pin/tack holes (top left/right corners, top/bottom center margins, a semi-flattened vertical center crease with a 4" thin vertical bend just to the left, a few stray bends around the edges and in the corners, a tiny bit of fraying in the bottom left corner tip, a dime-sized oil stain in the right center margin, a few scattered ultra-soft surface stains and tiny stress/handling dings, otherwise fine... a nice charming-looking (if slightly used) example of the VERY FIRST AWHQ poster. This is where it all began, folks! Check out this brief piece from "Texas Music Scene TV"; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bXiyzNaVB8
