This great looking original 1975 Armadillo poster was designed by noted Austin area artist Cyndy Weberdorf and advertises a show by one of the most legendary blues guitar players of the era Elvin Bishop. In the 1960’s Bishop was an original member of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and after he went solo and formed the Elvin Bishop Group he also performed with Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper on their amazing 1969 live album. This poster featutes die-cut corners shaped like a playing card. Armadillio World Headquarters posters are currently enjoying top collector demand. This can be attributed to several reasons including scarcity historical significance as ground zero in the Texas psychedelic scene and the recently published book on the venue "Armadillio World Headquarters - A Memoir" by Eddie Wilson with Jesse Sublett and forward by Dave Marsh.
