Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Spring 2019
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/18/2019
The highly anticipated third and final installment in the original Star Wars trilogy, Return of the Jedi was released in the spring of 1983, with the film grossing over $475 million worldwide. Set one year after The Empire Strikes Back, the Emperor begins construction on the new Death Star, with the Rebel Alliance bent on stopping the Empire at all costs. We have an original Australian one sheet movie poster from the film, with this desirable example augmented with a beautiful signature from David Prowse, the man who played Darth Vader. At 27” x 40” and featuring gorgeous artwork by Kazuhiko Sano, the poster exhibits light toning, with a clean surface, sharp corners and just expected wear along the original fold lines. Void of the pinholes that are often found on surviving examples, Prowse has signed to the left of Vader’s image in silver paint pen, adding “Darth Vader”. The signature displays especially well, with just a minor stain over the reverse along with “Return Jedi” handwritten in dark ink.
