Description

Star Wars (20th Century Fox, 1977). One Sheet (27" X 41") Happy Birthday Style. A year after its original release, Star Wars was still running strong in theaters across the U.S. To celebrate this milestone, these theaters were presented with this special one sheet. Though technically designated "Style E", it is known by collectors the world over as the "Happy Birthday" poster. It was photographed by Weldon Anderson and designed by Tony Seiniger using the 11 of the 12 original Kenner action figures (the Jawa was omitted). The print run of these posters is believed to have been fewer than 1500 sheets, making this rolled survivor a rare find indeed. While other examples have turned up over the years, one would be hard pressed to find one in better condition than this one. There is a tiny tear in the top right corner that has been backed with a very small piece of tape and the faintest of edge wear from storage. Rolled, Near Mint-.
