Authentication Tips:

The four different print runs can be generalized by 4 differences relating to the information on the bottom horizontal margin. All the versions have the NSS information, a GAU logo “made in the USA” and copyright information on the very left of the margin. On the right, the different versions are indicated by the following 4 differences in writing

  1. 77/21/-0 and just to the left reads one sheet – style “A”
  2. 77/21
  3. 77/21 directly under reads Star Wars. Just to the left reads one sheet – style “A”.
  4. Same as above except one sheet – style “A”  is not written

BEWARE OF FAKES.

There is a lot of information on the internet about authenticating these different versions. The four bullet points below list out the known reproductions.

  1. A hair was on the original poster when it was being reproduced; causing a photograph of a hair on Leia’s thigh and on Luke’s belt.
  2. The ground/area below Leia and Luke should be a deep brown, the fake is much brighter orange
  3. Reproduction posters don’t measure 27 x 41“. The most common incorrect size is 24 x 36″.
  4. When in doubt about the authenticity, if it appears to be a “too good to be true” deal; then be extra careful, because it probably is.

This particular Star Wars 1 sheet style “A” 4th printing is in near mint condition with no major and only some minor imperfections to note. There are a 3 border chips which can be easily seen if the poster’s photo is clicked to enlarge and there is the slightest wear along the fold lines.  Style A tri-folds are very rare so get this one while its still available!
