The third instalment of George Lucas’ original Star Wars trilogy “Return of the Jedi” contains a number of incredible set pieces right from the opening scene in Bobba Fett’s lair, Han’s rescue by Luke, the reveal of a larger more deadly Death Star, the Ewoks and their home planet – the Forest Moon of Endor. And it the Forest of Endor that acts as the setting to one of the most exciting and adventurous scenes in the movie as Luke and Princess Leia battle the Imperial forces on their speeder bikes. That scene is perfectly captured here by Jason Raish for his 2025 alternative movie poster, as a stormtrooper is chased through the Endor Forest, by Luke on their speeder bikes, blasters blazing. It truly is spectacular. Presented here in original rolled (as issued) condition this fantastic example has deep unfaded vibrant colour tones and displays to excellent effect. With an extremely limited release of only 150 this hand-numbered #21 is a truly scarce poster and highly sought after. Already firmly established as a fans favourite, this impressive art print represents a fine addition for any collector of movie posters or Star Wars fan memorabilia.
Trivia: A reason for filming under the guise of non-descript horror movie title, “Blue Harvest” was partly to put off any snoopers, and also because the production found out that if they mentioned they were working on the next Star Wars movie, suppliers would automatically ramp up their prices, assuming that money was no object for Lucasfilm.

The best trilogies have an epic finale, and Martin Ansin shows off his brilliant illustrator skills with the final print in his Star Wars Original Trilogy set. Ansin brings exceptional detail and dynamic colour to this alternative movie poster for “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi”. Created in 2026, the composition places Luke Skywalker at its centre, framed by Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine above, with Princess Leia, Han Solo and Lando Calrissian arranged among scenes from the climactic final chapter of the original trilogy.
Ansin’s intricate design incorporates the forest moon of Endor, speeder bikes, Scout Troopers, Ewoks and the second Death Star battle, rewarding close inspection with an extraordinary range of characters, vehicles and narrative details. The rich blue, red and gold palette is enhanced by the reflective foil stock paper, which catches the light and adds depth and brilliance to the screen-printed artwork.
This foil variant is hand-numbered #314 from a limited edition of 425. Presented rolled (as issued) unfolded and in superb condition, it has tremendous visual impact and makes an exceptional display piece for collectors of “Star Wars”, Martin Ansin and contemporary alternative movie-poster art.

“The Empire Falls…”
For the third chapter of the original Star Wars trilogy “Return of the Jedi” Lucasfilm successfully chose a number of internationally acclaimed artists to present a varied series of designs for the Worldwide advertising campaign. One of the most revered was the Yamakatsu issued Style B Japanese B2 by the prominent Star Wars artist Noriyoshi Ohrai. Titled ‘Starfall’ . For the 40th Anniversary the imagery was licensed by the US clothing brand Kith and used to promote their exclusive collection of adults and kids’ apparel, along with commemorative accessories. You could only obtain one of these posters if you attended the launch event at the New York City store. Larger than the original B2s and with the ‘Return of the Jedi’ added these are incredibly sought after by collectors. Ohrai’s beautiful illustration is widely regarded as one of the best of any ‘Star Wars’ posters and is hugely desirable. Presented here in unrestored rolled (as issued) condition this amazing example looks magnificent; deep unfaded vibrant colours that truly ‘pop’ from the paper. A stunning poster that is genuinely very, very scarce and a must have addition for any Star Wars fan or movie poster collection from what was (until 2015) the defining chapter in the Star Wars original trilogy.
“You have that power too Leia. In time you’ll learn to use it as I have. The Force runs strong in my family. My father has it. I have it. And… my sister has it. Yes. It’s you, Leia.”
Trivia: Takes place 5 years before The Mandalorian (2019).
