Hank Williams posters are highly sought after due to their historical importance. Most Williams posters are "boxing style" featuring simple lettering displaying the performer venue and dates. This poster is different...and special.... as it features a photo of Williams his Drifting Cowboys band and his beloved wife Ms. Audrey. The poster is a "tour blank" with space below used to fill in venue date and other specific information for various concerts on this tour.
This example is in far better shape than the example that realized an eye popping head turning World Record price of $25 000 against an estimate of $5 000-$10 000 in February 2016. That example was heavily damaged and featured major paper loss in each corner AND along the edges. The example offered here is absolutely gorgeous see condition details below!
