Presenting the FIRST CGC graded example of this original Vulcan Gas Company handbill to appear in our auction! Blues Rock legend Johnny Winter began his recording career at the young age of 15 and his high energy albums made an impact on the music world during the late 60's and early 70's. High Graded original blues material in this classic era from Texas is very collectible and always receives attention in our auctions!

 

During the 1960’s a small group of students began promoting psychedelic rock and blues concerts in the Austin area. They were originally known as the Electric Grandmother and later became the Vulcan Gas Company. Eventually they opened a venue under the same name. It was mostly a room for regional Texas artists and not frequented by the larger national touring acts of the day however from time to time the more well-known bands would perform there. Handbills from the Vulcan can be difficult to find these days in ANY condition. NOW is the time to pick up these relics before they evaporate from public sale!
