This is an original Star Wars Style A US One sheet poster. This is a special poster, hugely rare and coveted. Star Wars was so popular in US Cinemas that four distinct print runs of this poster were created for the first release of the film. The NSS number at the bottom right of the poster can be used to distinguish between the posters and this one which has 77/21-0 is from the first print run. The 77/21-0 is the most coveted of these posters and the multi coloured strip that can be seen on along the side makes this one extra special as it shows it to be a printers proof. The coloured bar is used to enable printers to revise and perfect the posters they print using the offset lithography method. 99.9% of the time the proof is chopped from the posters before circulating them in the cinemas. Old proofs are often re-discovered in printing presses years later as is the case with this poster which has come directly from the printer. The 77/21-0 poster is widely faked and the fact that this one still has the proof from the first offset print run make its originality irrefutable. The design, and artwork for the poster, was produced by Tom Jung. Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, R2-D2 and C-3PO all feature on the poster. A large image of Darth Vader's helmet looms in the background, a design that was used in many subsequent posters for the franchise. A white streak across the top of Luke's lightsaber forms a cross.

About our original Star Wars Posters
The first three Star Wars films produced by George Lucas between 1977 and 1983 are quite simply some of the most popular, and indeed beautiful cinema posters ever produced. The first Stars Wars film (A New Hope) was a phenomenon as soon as it hit the cinemas. In fact, the films were so popular that the Style A US Poster had 4 different print runs (with slightly different NSS codes) that are all considered first release posters. Despite this relatively high supply of Star Wars posters demand and price continue to soar. The ‘Gone with the Wind’ style poster for the Empire Strikes Back is considered by many to be the most cinema beautiful poster of all time. 1999 saws the release of The Phantom Menace which is in fact the first film in chronological order. A brilliant poster was needed to signal the return of the mega-franchise and it was delivered. 5 subsequent films were produced with the 2019 film The Rise of Skywalker being the finale.
