One of the greatest movie posters of all time. Even if it wasn’t Star Wars I’d still like it. Commissioned nine days before the film opened, artists the Brothers Hildebrandt had just 48 hours to complete it and were forced to work in shifts to get it done. All they were given was a bunch of black and white photos to work from. Painted on a piece of very un-futuristic masonite board!
