A second draft Adventures of the Starkiller script from George Lucas' Star Wars: A New Hope. This version of the script was originally issued to concept artist Colin Cantwell who designed several vehicles and ships. Bound within a leather springback binder, the script displays a red card cover which bears the original title "The Adventures of The Starkiller," as taken from the "Journal of the Whills'' in goldtone foil and a printed design by artist Esteban Maroto that was originally done for a 1972 Flash Gordon tribute. The art was placed on the cover of this early script to provide tone for the reader. "#4" is handwritten in the top right corner of the title page and a small piece of paper displays handwritten text including the production title, the date, an address for LucasFilm Limited and "copy #4." Very few copies of the second draft script are believed to have been issued. Dated January 28, 1975, the script consists of 115 single-sided printed pages on white U.S. letter size paper. The card cover displays small tears and creases from use, and there is minor discoloration present around the edges of some pages.
