Star Wars

Lucasfilm/Twentieth Century Fox, 1977,
a rare British quad poster for London theatrical release, artwork by the Brothers Hildebrandt, linen-backed,
30in x 40in (76cm x 102cm)

Footnotes

Literature:
S. Sansweet & P. Vilmur, The Star Wars Poster Book, 2005, p. 24.

The Hildebrandt quad poster design is believed to have been used for a limited time in London. The depictions of the film's central characters are more stylised, particularly Luke and Leia, as the artists did not have references for the actors. The design also shows an extended landscape of the desert planet Tatooine, accommodating the wider quad format.
