Bottleneck Gallery is celebrating May the Fourth (aka Star Wars Day) big time this year with the release of an insane number of killer officially licensed Star Wars prints! Check out these epic new Star Wars: The Original Trilogy screen prints by Marko Manev. The Blot really loves this tryptic featuring Luke’s journey and battles against the big bad guy of each movie. As BNG explained, “Marko’s lighting and color choices offer a unique, darker spin to each print that culminates in a powerful Empire Strikes Back piece. We’re always excited to see new takes on the original trilogy, and Marko’s set is striking.”
For Episode IV: A New Home, Manev has created “I am the Master” featuring Grand Moff Tarkin overlooking Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker. For Episode V: Empire Strikes Back there is “Most Impressive”, which features Darth Vader standing over a dual between Vader and Luke and then Luke with his sister Princess Leia. Last but certainly not least is the Episode VI: Return of the Jedi print “Towards the Dark Side” featuring Emperor Palpatine wit the second dual between Vader and Luke and then Luke at his father’s funeral pyre.
Each Star Wars: The Original Trilogy screen print by Marko Manev measures 12”x24” and comes hand numbered. The Regular Edition of each movie poster is limited to 250 pieces and retails for $40 each (or $115 as a 3 piece set). Each movie poster also has a Variant that is limited to 150 pieces and will retail for $50 each (or $145 as a 3 piece set). All six prints go on sale at 12pm ET tomorrow, Tuesday, May the 4th, at BottleneckGallery.com.
