Lot #184:

Star Wars - A New Hope: Cast Signed 16" x 20" Color Photo from Royal Award Ceremony with GEM MINT 10 Autographs! (Steve Grad Collection)(Beckett/BAS LOA)

Rare and very desirable 20" x 16" color Star Wars Official Pix licensed photograph featuring the famed Royal Award Ceremony on Yavin that concludes "A New Hope", nicely hand signed in blue, silver and gold metallic marker inks by the key hero cast from the film including Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher (adding "PLO"), Mark Hamill (adding "Luke"), Peter Mayhew (adding "Chewbacca"), Anthony Daniels (adding "C-3PO") and Kenny Baker (adding "R2-D2"). Cast signed photos of this image are desirable in any form, but are almost never found in this desirable 20" x 16" format. Furthermore, all six autographs on this photo have been so well executed that the piece has received a cumulative grade of GEM MINT 10 for all autographs--a near impossible feat on a multi-signed cast photo. Impressive! Accompanied by a full Letter of Grading & Authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services (BAS).

From The Steve Grad Autograph Collection.
