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. Artist: Tom Jung Important Added Info: Note that, due to the immense popularity of this movie, there were FOUR different printings of this "style A" one-sheet poster! The first printing (the poster offered here) has the original NSS number of 77-21-0, while the next three printings have the 77-21 NSS number. The first three printings all have "Style A" printed in the bottom border, while the fourth printing does not. In addition, there is both a "domestic" version of the very first printing, and an "international" version of the very first printing (the domestic version has the PG rating and the international has no rating). The poster offered here is a guaranteed original first printing of the domestic version (with the PG ratings)! Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a tear at upper right that has been repaired with tape from the back that slightly bleeds through to the front (but it only very slightly enters the background area and it mostly only affects blank paper.) It has a patch of slight discoloration and rippling due to exposure to moisture at lower left (extending from the lower left blank corner to just under Hamill's credits, through to the ratings box). It has some tiny green printing errors to the right and left of the art of Hamill and Fisher but they are not very noticeable or distracting when the poster is displayed. It is otherwise in generally nice condition and it is a poster that should respond really well to restoration. It is likely that the stains at lower left can be removed chemically, and after linenbacking with some proper restoration the poster will look fantastic (but bear in mind the cost of restoration before bidding on it.)
