'STAR WARS' AT 40: DEATH FROM SPACE!


In the depths of space, the firepower of the devastating Death Star super weapon is unleashed in this intriguing movie poster concept art for 20th Century Fox marketing by artist unknown, rendered we assume during late 1976, as the space station looks akin to an image conceived by Ralph McQuarrie in one of his 1975 conceptual paintings. And note the original 'W' in the STAR WARS logo that would be changed by the time of the film's release (though still appearing on select early merchandising worldwide).
