If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: NOTE THAT, AT FIRST GLANCE, THIS WOULD APPEAR TO BE A "SET" OF 6 STILLS, BUT IT IS ACTUALLY A SINGLE OVERSIZED STILL THAT CONTAINS SIX IMAGES! It only has (in tiny letters) the name of the movie, with copyright information and the 1980 date at the bottom left of the poster. Note that one might think this was a sheet of six uncut color stills that was intended to be cut, but because the copyright information is on the bottom left only, it seems impossible that it was intended to be cut, and instead was a really cool special poster! A knowledgeable Star Wars collector told us that he saw a Fox studio magazine that said that it was sent as part of a package along with a set of 16x20s, 11x14s, and 8x10s, and that the article said that 400 such packages were made. Note that this special "all Star Wars" auction began with a phone call from a VERY long time collector of Star Wars posters! He told us that he had reached a point in his life where he was wanting to sell his collection, and he asked if we could do it all at one time. Because he had 174 posters (including many of the most rare and desirable ones), we were happy to comply, but we told him that we would like to also add additional rare Star Wars posters from other collectors, and he agreed, and after we were consigned an additional 117 posters and related items, we have our auction! This item is one of the additional 117 items that we were consigned from other collectors. They REALLY came through with wonderful additional items that really add to the overall auction! If you are interested in knowing more about the person who assembled the amazing collection of 174 posters in this auction, CLICK HERE to read a written history of how he came to assemble this amazing collection! Condition: very good to fine. The poster has never been folded and it is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
