STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE (1977) - Linen-Backed Full-Scale Front Elevation "Robot R2" Production Blueprint - A linen-backed full-scale front elevation "Robot R2" blueprint from George Lucas' Star Wars: A New Hope. This blueprint of loyal droid R2-D2 was originally drawn by draftsman Peter Childs, then printed and distributed on "The Star Wars"-branded drafting paper barely two months prior to filming.
It originates from a 1976-era Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) crew member. Labeled "Front Elevation Robot Artoo" and dated "20.1.76," the blueprint identifies multiple droid components, such as R2's "louvered intake" valve, "arms," and various greeblies, and notes the DRG number as "67." It is designated as one of four sheets reissued by the production on January 23, 1976 to accommodate a design modification to the droid's legs. This blueprint underwent professional paper restoration to address water damage, making the stains less visible but muting down some of the original blue coloring in the process. The print has been linen-backed for stability and exhibits minor stains and wear along its edges from use. Dimensions: 33.5" x 49.5" (85 cm x 125.75 cm)
Estimate: $6,000 - 12,000
