Artist: Del Nichols Important Added Info: Note that in 1977, George Lucas recognized the value of merchandising his new movie, and he approached many companies about doing special advertising tie-in posters. He made four deals for the exact same posters with Coca-Cola! There was a set of 4 posters and one of the four deals was distributed through Burger King, one through Burger Chef, a third through Coca Cola in Japan only, and a fourth set was distributed only in the U.S. and they have "An original poster series from The Coca-Cola Company" at bottom. This auction is for the rare complete Coca-Cola set distributed in the U.S. and we have NEVER auctioned a complete set of these posters before! 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: good. Each has some very light rippling in a few areas (mostly "felt" but not "seen" except on back). Each has some light dot staining on back of a few inches of the upper and lower edges but they have surprisingly little if any effect on the front, except in the lower edge of poster #1 (Luke Skywalker). Please see our super-sized images to get a good sense of the condition of these items prior to placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
