Artist: Tom Jung
Important Added Info: NOTE THAT THIS POSTER HAS A MUCH DARKER, RICHER BLUE BACKGROUND THAN OTHER EXAMPLES OF THIS POSTER WE HAVE SEEN. But we have examined the poster very closely, and it is surely an original poster. Perhaps, due to the great popularity of this movie, there was more than one print run of this poster, and during this particular print run, a brighter background color was used. It is definitely FAR more rare than the lighter blue "regular" style.

Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has unevenly darkened on back and there are some patches of slight discoloration in the upper left border, and there are a few tiny dot stains in the upper edge, There are some tiny glue stains at lower right (see our image) and there is a slight vertical crease to the left of the title that has a slightly more visible horizontal crease at its bottom (see our image). The poster has very slightly darkened to the left of much of the image (but not at right). It is otherwise in generally nice condition and certainly many Star Wars collectors would be happy to display this rare poster as is, but after a relatively simple paperbacking it would display quite well!
