Description

The menacing gaze of Darth Vader loomed large on the Japanese-exclusive movie poster for Star Wars™: The Empire Strikes Back™. His floating helmet backed with stars and a fleet of ships advancing beneath a sky rendered with striking crimson Japanese typography. 

 

We’ve brought the 1980’s cinematic artwork to life on 20 g 999 pure silver for the very first time. Finished in bold color and proof detailing. Turn it over to find 'フォースと共にあれ' (Fōsu to tomo ni are) — "May the Force be with you," set against a frosted starfield reverse.
