Some more images from the above ‘Tippett Archive’…
 

Many more Star Wars images from ‘The Tippett Archive’ can be found at either of the links below (kindly posted by timdiggerm)…

Without exhaustively browsing, the only ISO with Star Wars material is browsable at https://ia600107.us.archive.org/view_archive.php?archive=/8/items/tippett-archive/!!-tippett-slides-star-wars.iso or downloadable (WARNING THIS LINK DOWNLOADS A 2.1 GB FILE) here

This guy went to Phil Tippet’s studio’s bankruptcy auction and bought a folder full of CDs. He has uploaded them as ISOs to the Internet Archive.

It is a lot of photos.

This is just amazing - nice one on the heads-up for this - and also the links to the 2.1gb Star Wars folder. 👍

Also kudos and credit to the person who bought the files - and then very kindly shared them via the Internet Archive. 🙌
 

It appears the ‘Tippet Archive’ on the Internet Archive project has just found some deserved press attention as well:-

‘The stop motion work of Phil Tippett and the now closed Tippett Studios is being preserved in a free-to-browse online archive.’

The quality of the photos, and the detail within, really highlight Phil Tippett’s superb and impressive work on the film; the Chess Set folder, the 2 Cantina folders, the Eyeball, the SWI folder - and even the bonus ‘Piranha’ film folder. 😃

 

Also content such as this…

 

The whole 49.6gb ‘Tippett Archive’ is available: https://archive.org/details/tippett-archive (+ description & non-Star Wars videos).

A ‘file directory’ list of the various content can be found: https://archive.org/download/tippett-archive

^ It is well worth checking out for any OT / ‘old school’ film fan - I know what I’m spending my free time this weekend doing!

Hello everyone 😃

I followed the rules and sent a PM to Harmy requesting a link - and have waited for reply. But I guess they’re busy.

I don’t suppose anyone else is able to provide me with a link please?

Hi and welcome AD82.

Alternatives on how to acquire this project can be found on this page - SnooPac’s post here + also in the post above yours.
 

❕ ‘How do I do this?’ on the OriginalTrilogy.com; some info & answers + member FAQs ❕ - in General Assistance

and…

❕ I have found a Fan Edit / Preservation I am interested in - but I don’t know how to get / acquire / download it? ❕.

^ It is always worth reading through a thread to see what the current ‘state of play’ for a project is, who else is kindly helping out with links, or information, how-to’s, and so on. Or simply having a look around the forum to see how things work on here etc.

Fellow members are always more likely to help anyone out if you are a participating member of the community; you don’t have to be a fellow fan editor, preservationist, tech wiz, artistic or skilled etc… just a member that has made, or is making, an effort.
 

Good luck with it, mate. 👍
