Drew Struzan’s legendary STAR WARS posters return in a stunning limited edition

Everything is fine Star Wars fan has an image of the generation-defining saga burned into his memory. For some, it is the epic and pictorial work of Greg Hildebrandt AND Roger Kastel that defined the late ’70s and ’80s.

But for those who grew up in the ’90s and beyond, there is one artist who has captured the Force like no other… Drew Struzan. Its unforgettable Star Wars Special edition poster for A new hope, The Empire strikes againAND Return of the Jedi they became instant icons. And now they’re back.

Bottleneck Gallery and Acme Archives have collaborated with Struzan to offer fans a brand new limited edition version of his famous Star Wars artwork from the trilogy.

These are premium screen-printed versions of Struzan’s original pieces: three perfect posters that, when viewed together, form a breathtaking vision of the galaxy far, far away.

Prints will arrive at noon ET on October 8th exclusively on BottleneckGallery.com, and collectors are already preparing for hyperspace-level demand.

The artwork itself remains unchanged, but the title treatments have been updated. Instead of the golden “Special Edition” logos of 1997, these feature more traditional title designs. There’s a reason behind the change.

Lucasfilm is notoriously particular when it comes to licensing official artwork. For example, you can’t post a poster that simply says Raiders of the Lost Ark more, must read Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark.

And the same logic seems to apply here too. Lucasfilm no longer markets the original trilogy as “Special Editions”, instead treating them as standard releases of the films. This probably explains the updated logos.

Another noteworthy detail is that the original special edition posters had credit blocks under the gold titles, and removing them would leave a strange blank space. The new logos fill that area nicely, keeping Struzan’s composition balanced.

For collectors who prefer a cleaner look, non-logo variants will also be available.

No matter which version you choose, these are great Star Wars posters offering the pure magic of Struzan. If you want to own a piece of Star Wars history, prints will go on sale at noon ET, October 8, at BottleneckGallery.com.
