Artist: Tom William Chantrell Important Added Info: Note that there are many reproduction Style C one-sheets being sold as originals. There are some key signs to identify the reproductions such as: a hair on Leia's back, a hair on R2's front wheel strut, different coloring and a non-speckled border. We have examined this poster very carefully for these indications, so you can bid with confidence that we have determined that this poster is 100% the original theatrical one-sheet! Note also that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 27" x 40" [69 x 102 cm]. Finally note that this is an "international" style one-sheet (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box and NSS information. Note that this item needs to be shipped in an oversized flat package. Most of these items absolutely can only be sent in flat packages, and could not possibly be rolled into a tube. Some of them might SEEM like they could be rolled in a tube, like a half-sheet, but they can't. The reason these items are in this auction is specifically because they CAN'T be rolled (because rolling any of them would damage them, even if they somehow can be rolled). So please bear in mind that this item must be sent in a LARGE flat package (the size of the package will depend on the size of the item when ready for shipping), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it. IN THE CASE OF EXTREMELY LARGE FLAT ITEMS, THE SHIPPING COST WILL BE VERY HIGH, SO PLEASE DO NOT BID WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THAT ADDED SHIPPING AMOUNT, AND INCLUDE THAT AMOUNT IN WHAT YOU BID (so if you would pay $150, but the shipping is likely $100, then only bid $50). And those who live outside the U.S. and who do not have a U.S. address to ship to SHOULD NOT BID AT ALL ON EXTREMELY LARGE FLAT ITEMS, BECAUSE THEY COST HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO SEND OUTSIDE THE U.S. Condition: fair to good. The poster is slightly faded (see our image) and it is glued on to a somewhat flexible piece of cardboard stock (it was likely displayed at one time). Approximately 1" of the upper edge has been trimmed, and then it was replaced with paper that does not exactly match the top edge of the poster (possibly from another source such as a commercial poster). Prior to being mounted to cardboard, the poster was machine-tri-folded only, and it has some creases and scuffs scattered in various areas, and some wear along the folds. Someone used a marker to touch up some darker-colored areas of those folds (see our image). The poster could still make a pretty cool display if one chose, but please bear in mind the poster's significant defects and that it is mounted to cardboard prior to placing a bid.
