Synopsis: One of the very first Star Warsposters had no images at all just enormous block letters that announced, Coming to Your Galaxy This Summer: Star Wars. The rest is history. Now, 28 years later, the 350 most amazing Star Warsmovie posters are collected for the first time. This compilation spans the surreal to ultra realistic, the campy to darkly serious: Darth Vaders head exploding in a shower of camera parts; Anakin Skywalker casting an ominous Sith shadow; C-3PO and R2-D2 selling Star Warsshoes; Luke and Vader in mortal battle aboard the Death Star. Classic posters are joined with text by the worlds foremost Star Warscollector, Stephen Sansweet, and poster collector Peter Vilmur, behind-the-scenes stories from artists and designers, a scarcity guide to over 2,000 posters, and a bootleg identification guide. Exploding with color, The Star Wars Poster Bookilluminates an unexplored corner of Star Warshistory. 2005 by Lucasfilm Ltd. & TM. All Rights Reserved.
