Hi, Craig,
Jeez, after all this stuff that's been posted about its rarity, it might
be the best time to sell it!

If anyone's interested, I have a Style C available for sale. It's
currently with
a friend with a bookstore who wanted to try selling it for me, so I can't
pull it
out to look at, but here's how he describes it in his catalog:
Star Wars Style C one sheet, tri fold, never folded vertically. Artwork
by
Tom Chantrll, per Sansweet and Vilmur, this poster was never intended for
US distribution. Perhaps less than 500 were made and distributed. 27 x
41 1/32. A nice copy of another rare poster, a C9.
I hadn't looked at the listing before so I didn't see this about the
quantity
or purpose. I have absolutely no memory of anyone ever telling us that
they weren't theatrical. I think we just assumed they were because they
were with all of our one-sheets. We just used them for publicity and
promotional purposes. I'm not sure where my friend got the information
from Steve and Pete but they're in a position to actually know. Pete's
currently asked me to review some material for a new book on the history
of Star Wars so I'll double check with him.

Star Wars 1-Sheet is almost on the level of an authentic Star Wars Birthday
Cake one sheet, a possible fact that is really surprising to me.
As I recall, 20 or 35 years ago, the Style C one sheet at least
occasionally appeared and it wasn't viewed as that much more rare than the
Style D.
Nowadays, it seems like at any oiven time you can find at least 1 or 2
Style D one sheets listed on eBay---there are at least a dozen in Heritage's
auction records---but I don't know if there's a single Style C. Apparently,
a lot of collectors are holding on to their Style C Star Wars one sheets.
Like I said, it all seems a bit mysterious to me.
