Star Wars (now known as "Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope"), the classic 1977 George Lucas (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) outer space fantasy action adventure science fiction (sci-fi) epic ("A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..."; "George Lucas, the man who brought you American Graffiti now brings you an adventure as big as the cosmos itself: Star Wars, the story of a boy, a girl, and a universe. It's a spectacle light years ahead of its time from 20th Century Fox."; "Written and Directed by George Lucas"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Mark Hamill (as Luke Skywalker), Harrison Ford (as Han Solo), Carrie Fisher (as Princess Leia), Peter Cushing (as Grand Moff Tarkin), Alec Guinness (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; as Obi-Wan Kenobi), Anthony Daniels (as C-3PO), James Earl Jones (as the voice of Darth Vader), David Prowse (billed as "Dave Prowse"; as the man inside the Darth Vader suit!), Peter Mayhew (as Chewbacca), Kenny Baker (as R2-D2), and Phil Brown (as Uncle Owen)

Artist: Tom William Chantrell
Important Added Info: Note that there are many reproduction Style C one-sheets being sold as originals. There are some key signs to identify the reproductions such as: a hair on Leia's back, a hair on R2's front wheel strut, different coloring and a non-speckled border. We have examined this poster very carefully for these indications, so you can bid with confidence that we have determined that this poster is 100% the original theatrical one-sheet! Note also that this is an "international" style one-sheet (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box and NSS information. Also note that this poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. The poster was tri-folded only. There are a few tiny brown dot stains scattered in the top 6" - 8" of the poster due to exposure to moisture (they are mostly noticeable in just a few small areas in the art of space near Darth Vader and in the blank borders - see our image). There is a line of a few creases scattered vertically approximately 11" from the right edge of the poster and there is some light fold wear. Despite the few defects the poster still displays pretty well from a reasonable viewing distance and it can be enjoyed as it is (or a simple linenbacking would resolve the small areas of very slight discoloration described above.)
