Description

Star Wars (20th Century Fox, 1978). Rolled, Very Fine-. German Deko Title Posters (5) (19.5" X 46.5", 13" X 23.25", 13.75" X 33", 13.75" X 16.5" & 3.5" X 37.5").
Offered here is a set of five original posters of varying sizes from the German Krieg der Sterne (Star Wars) Deko display series, one of the most inventive and visually dynamic international poster campaigns ever produced for the film. Designed to be arranged in numerous configurations, these pieces could be combined into an impressive modular lobby display, adaptable to different theater spaces and promotional needs. Four of the posters feature the bold Krieg der Sterne title in deep blue lettering set against a silver background, while the fifth poster bears the phrase "Es war einmal in ferner Zukunft..." ("Once upon a time in the distant future..."), an inversion of the film's famous opening crawl. The long horizontal banner, an unused decal, was intended for use across various layouts, and the largest piece is composed of two joined panels forming a striking centerpiece. While showing minor signs of handling such as light edge wear, pinholes, and faint creases, the group remains exceptionally attractive overall. For the fortunate collector who secures the complete Deko A1 set offered in the previous lot, this ensemble represents an essential and complementary addition.
