"A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…"

A guaranteed original poster from 1999 for Lucasfilm's first major fan gathering, "Star Wars Celebration".

The Star Wars Celebrations began in 1999 to celebrate the upcoming release of the first Star Wars prequel The Phantom Menace. Celebrations II and III were held to mark the release of Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith.

This, the official poster for Celebration I, perfectly pre-empts the Phantom Menace story-line, with Darth Maul looming over the young Anakin Skywalker.

The gatherings continue and in April 2023, Star Wars Celebration comes to London!

The fantastic artwork for this poster is by legendary movie poster artist John Alvin (E.T., Blade Runner, The Lion King and many others). Alvin also produced one of the rarest early Star Wars posters (the 'Concert' poster). 

Note that this poster has never been folded and displays superbly.

We only sell guaranteed original posters. We do not sell reproductions.

Note: This poster is priced unframed. Photos showing framed and 'in room' images are for illustration only. Please check our hi-res images and the sizing information shown above.

Original Poster Buying Guide

Authenticity & Original Posters

Art of the Movies specialises exclusively in authentic original cinema posters issued for theatrical release. These are not modern reproductions or decorative reprints.

Original posters were produced in limited numbers for cinemas to promote films during their initial release. As a result, surviving examples have become highly collectible artefacts of film history.

Each poster offered on this site is an authentic vintage piece created for cinema exhibition and carefully selected for collectors and film enthusiasts.

Condition & Age

Vintage cinema posters were working promotional materials used by theatres and distributors. As such, signs of age and handling are normal and form part of their character.

Condition is carefully assessed for each poster and reflected in the description. Where relevant, notes may include details such as light handling wear, fold lines from original cinema distribution, or minor edge wear.

Any significant restoration or conservation work will always be clearly stated.

Poster Formats & Dimensions

Original cinema posters were produced in a variety of standard formats depending on the country and era of release.

Common formats include UK Quad, US One Sheet and other theatrical display sizes. Exact dimensions for each poster are provided in the product details where relevant.

These historic formats are part of the distinctive character of original film advertising.

Framing Options

Many posters can be supplied professionally framed as an optional extra.

Framing is carried out using archival-quality materials designed to protect and display vintage paper safely. Frames are prepared to complement the artwork while maintaining a clean, gallery-style presentation.

Where framing is available, it can be selected before purchase.

Packaging & Delivery

Posters are carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery.

Unframed posters are typically shipped rolled safely packaged within our extra-thick custom-made tubes. Framed pieces are securely boxed using protective materials to minimise movement during transit.

Orders are dispatched with tracking where available.
