Historical Note
Formed in the 1970s, Sheauxnough Studios was a collective of poster artists in
Austin, Texas, formerly associated with the Armadillo World Headquarters. When the
Studios closed and the building was demolished in 1987, Seth I. Aronie, now known as
Emmanuel Aronie, produced a program about the closing of Sheauxnough Studios,
entitled “End of an Era,” which aired on the local television public access network,
ACTV. Aronie transferred footage and copies of the program to Patrick McGarrigle,
who in turned donated the collection to the Dolph Briscoe Center for American
History.
