THE ILLUSTRATED STAR WARS UNIVERSE (1995) - Hand-Drawn Ralph McQuarrie Jabba's Palace Gate Concept Sketch - A concept sketch of Jabba the Hutt's Tatooine palace gate hand-drawn by Ralph McQuarrie for Kevin J. Anderson's book The Illustrated Star Wars Universe. Considered the foremost artist from the franchise, McQuarrie contributed art for the book.

Select McQuarrie illustrations were developed during production on the original trilogy, with designs for Jabba's palace gate first seen in Return of the Jedi-era artworks. The gate was later used as a key set piece in J.J. Abrams' The Force Awakens. This sketch is rendered in graphite on paper with a red pencil border. It exhibits folded corners and a paint color test in the top right corner. Dimensions: 8.5" x 11" (21.75 cm x 28 cm)

Sold without copyright; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: $5,000 - 10,000
