One Sheet (26 7/8" x 41"); Dated Style, Withdrawn Advance
Very Fine- Rolled; Artwork by Drew Struzan
20th Century Fox, 1982

A scarce dated US one sheet teaser poster featuring Drew Struzan's artwork for Return of the Jedi. This movie initially had the working title of Revenge of the Jedi (with teaser posters printed with this title). These were distributed in both dated and undated versions. There are many reproductions and fakes of both versions. Still, we have carefully examined this poster and are 100% certain that it is an original dated "Revenge of the Jedi" teaser one sheet that measures exactly 26 7/8" x 41".

This rolled poster is in well-kept condition with a few exceptions. There is minor edge wear and a chip in the upper right corner. Additionally, an abrasion in the center of the poster starts at around the top of Darth Vader's head but can only be seen from some angles.

The concluding installment of the beloved original Star Wars trilogy, directed by Richard Marquand. After opening with a bravura rescue sequence at the palace of Jabba The Hutt, it lives up to the saga's title with an ambitious three-tier climactic battle, combining fierce starship dogfights, a forest conflict involving the teddy-bear-like Ewoks, and the ultimate lightsaber duel between Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) and his father Darth Vader (David Prowse).

Estimate: $1,500 - 3,000
