Artist Josh Kirby painted a colourful all action sweeping montage exclusively for the 1983 British release of “Return of the Jedi”. These early version UK quad film posters were nearly all produced slightly trimmed (27″ x 40″) almost entirely for advertising use in the London Underground. Kirby’s design was quickly replaced by Kasu Sano’s updated imagery which featured the Ewoks. Presented here in fantastic unrestored condition this beautiful folded (as issued) example looks magnificent; deep unfaded vibrant colours. A rare example of original Star Wars movie memorabilia from what was until “Episode VII – The Force Awakens” released in 2015 was the last true Star Wars movie produced and represents a fantastic example of original Star Wars cinematic movie memorabilia from the defining chapter of the Original Trilogy.
Trivia: After appearing in this movie, Wedge Antilles (Denis Lawson) becomes the only X-wing pilot character (apart from Luke) who survived all three original movies.

Star Wars Episode VII – The Force Awakens is a continuation of the Star Wars saga created by George Lucas and set thirty years after Return of the Jedi and is perhaps the eagerly anticipated film of all time. The release of each instalment is always accompanied by a huge global marketing and merchandising campaign with the movie posters produced always being of the highest artistic quality. And I’m pleased to say that Episode VII is no exception; Created by design agency LA and based on the art and concept ideas of Drew Struzan (Star Wars’ most prolific film poster artist) the finished poster is a magnificent colourful all action sweeping montage where old (Han Solo, Princess Leia & Chewbacca) meets new (Kylo Ren, Rey, Finn & Captain Phasma). The original UK quad film poster offered here is full UK quad size measuring 30″ x 40″ and is double sided. Guaranteed original and presented here in fantastic unrestored (as new) condition this beautiful ROLLED (as issued) example looks fantastic; deep unfaded vibrant colours…Investment grade quality…A very rare and desirable example of original Star Wars movie memorabilia from what has become one of the most collectable and popular modern movie franchises.

“After rescuing Han Solo from Jabba the Hutt, the Rebel Alliance attempts to destroy the second Death Star while Luke struggles to help Darth Vader back from the dark side.”
This is the first printing of the original release British quad – the earlier version omitted several characters and these were added later. With an updated design by Feref Associates based upon Josh Kirby’s original artwork for the 1983 British release of “Return of the Jedi”. This revised version was produced to be more in keeping with the US campaign by Kazu Sano, it’s darker in feel and now features the Ewoks. Extremely desirable and scarce in the high grade condition offered here, it really is superb and most likely unused. Totally original and unrestored folded (as issued) condition. A fantastic example of original Star Wars cinematic movie memorabilia from what was the defining chapter of the Original Trilogy.
Trivia: It took six people to work the full-sized animatronic of Jabba the Hutt. The puppet fit three men inside -two to operate the arms, head and tongue and another to move the tail. A man lying below the puppet pulled strings to move Jabba’s mouth and make his sides heave. And two radio operators controlled the slimy goon’s eyes, including pupil dilation, direction and wideness of eyelids. A final crew member was responsible for rubbing gel on the puppet to give Jabba his slimy look.

Trivia: During the massive crowd celebration scene, C-3PO says that this event happens once every 42 years. This was the time between the first Star Wars movie to be released in 1977 and this film. However, the official time line in The Rise of Skywalker Visual Dictionary states that in the events of this film take place 35 years after that of A New Hope.
