CLASSIC ART: CUSTODIAN OF HOPE!


A lovely, ultimately unused piece of art for the STAR WARS GALAXY card series from 1995, featuring a young Sir Alec Guinness as Ben Kenobi cradling the newly born Luke Skywalker. The image (artist unknown- Ngwian?) was withdrawn by LUCASFILM at the time as the Prequel universe saga history and continuity was then still being mapped out, what with George Lucas's return to his film universe- the era becoming pretty much declared off limits to other writers and artists, bar the occasional mention of The Clone Wars.
