Description

Star Wars (Mokép, 1979). Rolled, Very Fine. Hungarian Poster (22" X 31.25") Full Color Style, Tibor Helényi Artwork.
This striking poster marks the first entry in Tibor Helényi's acclaimed Hungarian Star Wars series. Featuring surreal, imaginative imagery, it depicts the Death Star erupting in the background while a menacing, Vader-like phantom wields a lightsaber. Other vivid details include R2-D2's dome, a dragon clutching a machete, and Luke's X-wing speeding through the trench toward its target. Presented here in the rare large-format version, offered by Heritage for the first time, this piece ranks among the most elusive and sought-after posters in the Star Wars collecting world. Poster is in excellent condition with only light edge wear.
