US One-Sheet "Style-C" poster for Star Wars (1977), the poster with Tom Chantrell's colourful and dramatic illustration. This is an original first release poster and, unlike later reproductions, does not show a "hair" on Leia's back or at the base of R2-D2. The poster benefits from being stored flat for several years and is presented in excellent unrestored condition. Being "International", it lacks the ratings box and NSS information that is displayed on the "domestic" variant.

27" x 41" (69 x 104 cm)

Condition: Excellent

Unrestored, tri-folded (as issued). Minimal handling, age or fold line wear.

Artist: Tom Chantrell
