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) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. 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 (we know that it is not an uncut set of 6, because the printing on the back, which says "Star Wars Released by 20th Century-Fox Printed in U.S.A Copyright 1977 Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation", would be cut up if the poster were trimmed into six separate images). So this was definitely created as a single poster, but it is printed on the same paper stock that oversized 16x20 and 20x30 stills were printed on.
UPDATED 06/10/2019: Note that there was a mistake with the year in the Auction Title. This poster is from 1977 and not 1998. 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 was never folded. It has a few light scuff marks but none are noticeable or distracting and it is otherwise in excellent condition!
