A Style B purple variant one-sheet poster from the promotion of Irvin Kershner's Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Centered around an illustration of Darth Vader (David Prowse) by artist Thomas Jung, the rare purple variant of the Style B poster featured a distinctive dark lavender background that differentiated it from the more common light blue background version.

This glossy color one-sheet comes from the collection of the film's uncredited producer, Howard Kazanjian. It is in excellent overall condition with minimal wear from handling and age.

Dimensions: 41" x 27" (104.25 cm x 68.75 cm)
