Description

New Riders of the Purple Sage Armadillo World Headquarters Concert Poster, Group of 2 (1975) The New Riders began as an offshoot of the Grateful Dead, and fully maintained the Country/Rock direction the Dead took on their classic "Workingman's Dead" album. Here's a beautiful 17.5" x 12" poster, printed in black and purple ink on parchment-colored paper from the band's 1975 Austin concert, with opening act McKendree Spring. A wonderful pencil sketch of the band on horseback was provided by artist Michael Priest. The poster, in NM condition, has been attractively matted and framed to an overall size of 20.25" x 16.25". Also included is another NM Austin poster featuring art by Priest, for the Freewheelin Bicycle shop, dated 1972. It's the same size as the Riders poster, and similarly framed. Pick up a pair of Austin posters for those bare walls!
