great find

while volunteering last weekend i came across these incredible finds: 1977 Marvel comics of Star Wars epidode IV and the original motion picture soundtrack album.

the angles on a few of these shots look slightly different from the films. hunter tells me that it's probably because they are not taken from film stills but rather by a photographer on the set.

the album also includes extensive liners notes by composer john williams that explain his thoughts in writing and putting together the music.

have to figure out some way to display the album. hunter (a man of many genius ideas) suggested a glass case that holds the album open while it rotates and plays the theme music. i would proudly consider it the centerpiece of my home. not sure is such an exhibit exists. if anyone knows about one please let me know!
