Hawkwind – "Roadhawks" tour poster 1976
Original concert poster - Artwork by Barney Bubbles
A genuine collector’s item for Hawkwind fans and lovers of iconic 70s rock graphics!
An elaborately designed poster was released to accompany the 1976 compilation album 'Roadhawks' (featuring tracks from 1970–1975). The copy offered here corresponds to the legendary design—with subtle color differences from the LP insert—and was bought directly at a Hawkwind concert.
Gaumont, Southampton
1 October 1976
The striking and instantly recognizable design comes from Barney Bubbles, the band's long-time creative partner and later in-house designer for Stiff Records. His work today ranks among the most sought-after pieces in British music and punk history.
