About this listen

The article discusses the restoration of a worn 1977 "Style A" Star Wars poster by artist Tom Jung. This iconic poster, which features Luke and Leia with a looming Darth Vader, often becomes yellow and discolored over time. The YouTube channel "Fourth Cone Restoration" showcases the process of bringing such a poster back to a more pristine condition, though creases from folding remain visible. The article also mentions that the "Style A" poster's design influenced the "Style B" poster by the Hildebrandt Brothers, which had a brighter color scheme and included R2-D2 and C-3PO, characters later added to Jung's original art by Nick Cardy. "Fourth Cone Restoration" also has videos restoring other original Star Wars trilogy posters.
