    Description

    Please refer to photos, multiple shots of the same item, only one (1) VHS tape available with this listing.
    Available is a copy of the documentary
    THE MAKING OF STAR WARS
    (1977).
    This particular edition was released on VHS in 1995 as a special mail-away premium available from Kellogg's cereals ("
    send in a certain number of UPCs along with $x.xx for postage and handling
    "). Notable is the small disclaimer at the lower left corner of the reverse artwork - "
    FREE - NOT FOR RESALE
    " - highlighting the promotional nature of this item. Packaging is reminiscent of the 1995 re-release of the films on VHS with the "headshots" of characters included as a part of the graphic design.
    This almost-hour-long documentary was compiled in the aftermath of the enormous late-1970s success of the original STAR WARS film and features C-3PO and R2-D2 hosting a number of segments about the making of the film. Also notable are candid interviews with Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill along with some gratuitous rollerskating footage set to Meco's interpretation of the SW theme.
    Transcribed from the reverse of the packaging...
    It's the only adventure greater than STAR WARS - the incredible behind-the-scenes story of how this epic movie was brought to the screen. Hosted by C-3PO and R2-D2, this fascinating look back recounts the adventures of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia. Go on location in Africa, which doubled as the planet Tatooine, and to the enormous soundstages in England to witness the building of the film's extravagant movie sets.
    Watch the filming of key scenes, and see the technical wizardry behind STAR WARS' amazing special effects. Sit in on interviews with George Lucas as he explains his inspiration for STAR WARS, and hear Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher reminisce about the making of this extraordinary motion picture.
    Approx. 50 minutes.
    This tape is used and features some standard shelf wear associated with a cassette not kept in museum-quality conditions at all time... some light edge wear and bumped corners on the card-stock sleeve but the tape itself is in great shape. There's a little bit of blue "dog bone" sticker residue at the bottom of the reverse bottom border. Please note, this tape hasn't been recently tested / viewed but I have no reason to doubt the viability of playback.
    A great gift for yourself or that Star Wars fan in your life!
    Please contact me with any questions, I'd be happy to provide assistance.
