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)
Important Added Info: Note that not only is this a “bootleg” poster (completely unlicensed), but it is also apparently a “bootleg of a bootleg”! There was a bootleg printed in the mid 1970s that looks like this that measured 11″ 17 1/2″. We believe this poster was created from that poster in the 1980s, and that it is NOT from the 1970s as the earlier one was (and it measures slightly smaller at 11″ x 17″). We don’t know who created either version, exactly when either version was created, or how either version was sold or distributed, so please do not buy this unless you can accept these uncertainties.
Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has a single tack hole at upper center (see our image) but otherwise it is in pretty nice condition!
