Artwork Details

DescriptionArtist Celia Strain’s promotional poster for the Star Wars Radio Drama was part of NPR’s successful publicity campaign in 1981. This prelim done in ink is her final draft of the poster art. After scrapping the close-up of C-3PO in her first draft, she decided to use a full figure of the character for the final artwork. See the finished painting HERE in my gallery. The prelim is on vellum, mounted to a thick illustration board. The image area measures, 11” X 15.5”.The National Public Radio (NPR) produced and broadcasted an expanded radio dramatization of Star Wars, A New Hope as 13-part radio serial on March 9, 1981. George Lucas sold the rights to NPR for just one dollar. He also allowed them to use all the original sound effects and music from the film. The Star Wars radio drama became a huge hit, adding 750,000 new listeners to NPR. Social/Sharing |
