A rare quad poster created by the Hildebrandt Brothers from the promotion of George Lucas' Star Wars: A New Hope. Originally produced in 1977, this poster was a highly sought-after design. It had a limited release of one to two weeks before it was replaced by the commercial Style C design featuring artwork by Tom Chantrell. The Hildebrandts' art was later used for the cover of Time Magazine's "45th Anniversary: The Story of Star Wars" special edition in 2022.

Printed in England by W.E.Berry Ltd. Bradford, this version was rated 5.0/6.0 by starwarsmovieposter.com for rarity, making it the second rarest Star Wars poster ever. It was also given a 10/10 rarity rating by Stephen Sansweet's Star Wars Poster Book, which many consider the industry bible for Star Wars posters. The lot has retained its bright colors and exhibits small tears along the top edge and several marks on the reverse. Dimensions: 30" x 40" (76 cm x 101 cm)

Estimate: $6,000 - 8,000Δ
