Now, the fifth book in the George Lucas - curated Star Wars Art series, Posters, collects the very best of this artwork, covering a wide range of styles and tones - from photorealism to surrealism, and from contemplative to camp - for all six Star Wars theatrical releases, as well as animated television series, radio dramatizations, gallery exhibitions, fan-club exclusives, foreign one-sheets, video games, and limited-edition posters curated and commissioned by Mondo Tees in Texas and Acme Archives Ltd.
