HI-Res Poster Art — Page 11

It is the original 1980 International Three Sheet. As the name suggests the three sheets are normally approximately 3 times the size of the most common used poster, called a one sheet.

Thanks, never seen it before.

Nice one, zeppelinrox.

LexX, there was also an similar International Six Sheet version of it:

Cool, thanks. I'd really love to collect SW posters but there's waay too many of them. I guess I have to continue collecting them in digital form. :P

Does anyone have Jung's artwork without the droids? Like in this one:

Also if anyone has decent scans or photos of Super 8 and 16 mm boxes, I'd be interested. :)

I am also looking for it, but have not had any luck so far. :( It's my personal holy grail in SW-artwork. ;)

What's interesting is that the droids were actually added by comic book artist Nick Cardy, apparently he also added little details to the other characters, the same last minute touch-ups were also made on Jung's half-sheet, don't know if it was from the same uncredited artist on that though, they look quite different, and IMO don't fit with Jung's art at all. The original half-sheet art is on the cover of the 1977 theater-program, I will scan it someday.

The Hildebrandts were also told by Lucas to add the droids on their Tom Jung variant in the last minute, that one I have though.

If you don't find it, maybe a little photoshopping will suffice, but it doesn't feel right. ;)

That's interesting, I hadn't notice that before. Or about the Hildebrandts' either. I also have that one with and without droids and didn't even notice it LOL. I also have the original half sheet art but it's badly cropped. But you can clearly see they've removed a lot of stars and added the droids.

But that Super 8 was the first time I actually saw the droidless style A version used.

Yeah, I'm quite surprised it was used on a Super 8 cover, it was mostly used in early publicity ads etc, you have the droidless artwork in Rinzler's Making of SW, unfortunately it's too small.

Although not poster art, still could be useful:

I apologize if I'm cramming up this thread with stuff people don't want...BUT, here's one more. The Star Wars Circus poster sans text.

Is this even a real version or has someone just messed around with it? It doesn't have much color outside the circle and the suns are white.

It definitely looks custom made, I may be wrong though.

Found this, never seen it before, if I did I don't remember it. Could be a cool DVD cover if somebody had a biggun'.

It says no hotlinking, can you link it somewhere else?

Okay, I found it and uploaded it to imageshack.

It is a bit small. I think it might have been either comic art or lunch box art, either of which I never collected much. It would make a cool DVD cover, knowing how lacking ROTJ is for art.

Hi, everyone. (I'll try to deliver my best english!)

I came on this website by looking for those "unframed" version of the 1997 special edition posters. I know the french Delcourt comics have it but I can't find any hi-res of those. If someone here have it or have the possibility to do scans, I will be lasting grateful if he could post 'em.

Thanks

Me too. Those are the ones used on VHS covers, I'd like to get these.

Anybody gotta hi rez version of this picture:
