Our expert's notes

A printed portfolio of Ralph McQuarrie’s concept paintings that were displayed in the Industrial Light & Magic model shop. Published by Ballantine Books and distributed in July 1980, these first-edition prints were previously pinned to the walls of the ILM model shop for many years following the release of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back in 1980. This collection includes 23 of the original 24 prints that capture classic moments from the second entry in the Star Wars saga. Paired with the prints is the cardboard folder which has been signed on the back by Gawley. The prints show wear due to being pinned to the walls of ILM but otherwise remain in fine condition. From the private collection of Steve Gawley. Dimensions: 55 cm x 26 cm x 1 cm (21 ¾” x 10 ¼” x ½”)
