[STAR WARS] Group of early posters.
Comprising: the rare poster before the title was changed for Revenge of the Jedi, 1982, with the text in the lower margin "Revenge of the Jedi Teaser One Sheet," 41 x 27 inches, rolled, some pale spotting to margin, minor edgewear and creasing to edges, other signs of handling; Return of the Jedi, 1983, one sheet poster numbered 830013, 41 x 27 inches, rolled, minor edgewear and light creasing to edges, minor signs of handling; and Star Wars, with the Twentieth Century Fox imprint and dated 1977, the artwork by Hildebrandt, 28 x 20 inches, rolled, small loss to margin, two small tape repairs at lower corners, staining to verso, other signs of light handling.
These posters were rolled in a tube dated January 1984 addressed to Eleanor Ehrhardt at Random House, author of three Star Wars Legends picture books published in 1979: The Wookiee Storybook; The Mystery of the Rebellious Robot; and The Maverick Moon. The title of the second installment of the series was meant to be Revenge of the Jedi but was changed by George Lucas after considering revenge an act beneath Jedis.
