Artist: Tom Jung Important Added Info: Note that two versions of this standee were created. One is "die-cut", meaning that it has an irregular border around the edges, and the other is square around the edges. We are currently auctioning one of each in two separate auctions, and THIS auction is for the square version, which includes the original mailing carton. Note that despite having a 1977 date, this standee was created for the 1982 video re-release and not the 1977 first release. We contacted Star Wars experts Pete Vilmur and Steve Sansweet about the strange R82 Star Wars posters. They confirmed that in 1979, 20th Century Fox gave Lucasfilm back their copyright and merchandising rights as part of a deal. In 1982, Lucasfilm created a one-sheet, standees, 40x60 and an insert poster (the insert was part of a giveaway) to promote the video release of Star Wars. Note also that the standee comes in its original mailing carton, and that it will need to be sent in a very large (and pretty heavy) flat package that measures 18" x 40" x 2", so please bear the cost of mailing in mind BEFORE you place a bid on this item! Note that we can ship it to the new owner just in the original mailing carton, or we could put the entire mailing carton into a larger box, or we can discard the mailing carton and just send the standee in a box of our own making. The choice will be for the new owner to decide. Condition: very good. The standee has some creases in the corners of each area when it was folded. Otherwise, it is in nice condition!
