Description

Sought-after original 11 x 17 concert tour poster for Hank Williams and His Drifting Cowboys from 1949, featuring a large image of the great country western artist, his band, and his wife Miss Audrey at the WSFA studio in Montgomery, Alabama. At the top, the poster bills Williams as "Writer and Singer of the Nationally Famous Hit Song—'Move It On Over.'" The area at the bottom intended for venue, date, and ticketing information has been left blank; these posters would have been distributed to local venues and filled out with appropriate details throughout their tour. This is a particularly rare style of Hank Williams poster, as it features an image of him and his band—most of his concert posters had text only. In fine condition, with light edge chipping and toning.
