Super rare original color 40 x 60 ‘Style A’ movie poster for Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Cardstock poster was produced in 1980 and features artwork by Roger Kastel, who was inspired by the 1967 re-release poster for Gone With the Wind and used several similar features in his creation. Poster also has its NSS information printed in the lower border. Scattered edge creases and dings, and a few corner creases, otherwise fine condition. Rolled. Posters of this size were produced in very small numbers only for major motion pictures due to the exponential cost as compared to the standard one-sheet posters. This particular design was quickly replaced after its release to satisfy the angry Billy Dee Williams, whose character, Lando Calrissian, was not featured on the poster. Later versions of this artwork incorporated the missing character into the overall image. RR Auction COA.
