Concept movie poster art by famed designer Tom Jung for "The Empire Strikes Back", revised here to include Harrison Ford as "Han Solo", who emerged from "Star Wars" as one of the lead characters in the franchise. The large, dramatic artwork features Darth Vader with a beckoning, outstretched arm, standing ominously over his horde of Stormtroopers, with Luke Skywalker riding a tauntaun and Han Solo firing his DL-44 blaster.

A postcard of the final advertising artwork accompanies this lot.
