Description

Star Wars (Mokép, 1979). Rolled, Very Fine. Hungarian Uncut Printer's Proof Poster (23.25 X 32.75") Style A, Tibor Helenyi Artwork.
While Heritage has previously offered the Style A Hungarian Star Wars poster, this marks our debut presentation of this rare uncut printer's proof. Created by celebrated artist Tibor Helényi, this highly sought-after design reimagines George Lucas's 1977 space epic through a surreal, expressionistic lens. Known for crafting posters for each film in the trilogy, often working from memory, Helényi employed bold color, abstract composition, and inventive detail, such as R2-D2's dome doubling as Darth Vader's pauldron, to evoke the saga's mythic grandeur. An absolutely gorgeous piece, showing only light edge wear, gentle corner bends, and a small area of creasing along the top border. Sure to be a highlight of any advanced collection.
