Our expert's notes

UK Quad "Non-Oscars®" poster for "Star Wars" (1977). The "Non-Oscars" version of this poster was used in the first couple of weeks of the UK release and was subsequently replaced with the "Oscars®" version. The "Non-Oscars" version is by far the scacer of the two Quads. Tom Chantrell's "Star Wars" poster imagery has now achieved iconic status. Although he previewed the film and was given set photographs stills, Chantrell took photos of his wife in the back garden posing as Princess Leia that he used for reference in the creation of his poster composition. This poster remains in rare unfolded condition.

30" x 40" (76 x 102 cm)

Additional Information: Printed in England by W.E.Berry Ltd. Bradford

Condition: Excellent

Unrestored, rolled (as issued) with minimal handling and age wear. It displays to excellent effect.
