A global phenomenon when originally released in 1977 producing (at the time) a multitude of related merchandise including some exceptional commercial and promotional posters with some of the best and examples being very collectable in their own right. R2-D2 and C3PO have gone on to become iconic and hugely popular, more so probably than the lead characters and really have become the symbol for the franchise featuring in all seven films and became pivotal figures in the massive marketing and merchandising campaign that was to follow. Presented here on this original vintage 1977 “Star Wars” poster from the original soundtrack…“The Story of Star Wars” in original unrestored condition this excellent rolled (as issued) example was one of the best promotional Star Wars licenced posters produced at the time and one of the very few made to display horizontally in a landscape format.

Trivia: The skeleton that C-3PO passes belongs to a Tatooine creature called a Greater Krayt Dragon. This artificial skeleton was left in the Tunisian desert after filming, and still lies there. During filming of Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones (2002), the site was visited by the crew once more, and the skeleton was still there. In The Mandalorian Chapter 9: The Marshal (2020), locals on Tatooine join with Sand People to fight and kill one of these serpents.

Trivia: In order to avoid sharing creative rights, George Lucas decided to avoid using a major studio to finance this movie. Instead, he bankrolled the $18 million production himself, using a combination of his profits from Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977) and a bank loan. Although the move was risky, it paid off several times over. Lucas recovered his investment within three months of the movie’s release.
