Fan's Poster Collection Up For Auction This Week

From the Heritage Press Release:

More than 50 lots of some of the rarest posters from the original Star Wars movie and its first two sequels are being offered at Heritage Auctions’ July 25 and 26 Vintage Movie Posters Signature® Auction.

The posters, originally released between 1977 and 1982, are among more than 1,300 lots of some of the rarest and most desirable vintage movie posters to come to auction, according to Grey Smith, Heritage’s Director of Movie Posters. They originate in the collection of the late John Williams (not to be confused with the composer of the same name), who passed away earlier this year.

“This once-in-a-lifetime selection includes the rare nylon banner produced for Star Wars’ initial release,” Smith said, “along with an autographed poster produced for the Star Wars concert series with artwork by John Alvin and signed by George Lucas as well as the scarce Howard Chaykin promotional poster autographed by the artist.”

The auction includes nearly all poster styles used at U.S. theaters for Lucas’ original three films, plus many used for worldwide distribution, including rare Russian, Polish, Japanese, French, British and German posters.
You can check out the auction at this link to the Heritage Auction Feature Page.

Now that you've had your first look at Hasbro's 2013 San Diego Comic-Con exclusive Black Series Boba Fett and Han Solo in Carbonite two pack, the Probe Droid is curious what you think of the set.
I'm attending SDCC and will certainly get this awesome set!
I'm attending SDCC but have no interest in this line.
I'm not attending SDCC but hope to get this awesome set somehow.

I'm undecided but interested in seeing it added to the Photo Archive.
I'm more vexed at why toy collecting news is suddenly exclusive to USA Today instead of a site I go to for my Star Wars news...
