A hand-signed original pencil on paper drawing by artist Robert Bailey alongside an original rare Anthony Daniel’s script page.
Castle Fine Art is proud to present From the Adventures of Luke Starkiller, a world-exclusive collection of original art by the prestigious pencil artist, Robert Bailey. Alongside original script pages from the 1977’s ‘Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope’ film, Bailey has exquisitely illustrated scenes in his famously detailed pencil artworks.
The script featured in the collection originally belonged to English actor and mime artist, Anthony Daniels, best known for playing the loyal protocol droid C-3PO in the Star Wars saga. The actor first appeared in the role of C-3PO in 1977 and is the only actor to appear in all Star Wars feature films to date.
His 145-page draft script, credited to Lucas, is dated January 1, 1976. The visibly worn title page has Daniels' name stamped on it and features the title “Star Wars”. This artworks relates to script page 91.
The authenticated fourth draft script was used during the production of ‘A New Hope’ and contains hand-annotated personal pencil markings and script revisions by the actor, providing an insight into the film’s complex production process. In January 2024, Harrison Ford’s copy of the script sold at auction for over £10,000.
Using a method called hatching, whereby the closely drawn parallel lines imply shade, tone and texture, Bailey’s drawings take many hours to complete. Each image is purposely chosen to carefully complement the script page it accompanies, perfectly recreating that movie moment.
In this collection, Robert Bailey’s drawings and pages from Anthony Daniels’ script have been paired together, then mounted, framed and placed under museum-quality glass. The result is a collection of totally unique pieces, perfect for any Star Wars fan.

Once you've completed your purchase, a confirmation receipt will be sent via email. You will also receive a follow-up phone call from one of our art consultants to provide confirmation, finalise the details of your preferred delivery method and answer any further questions you may have.
What is the difference between a limited edition and an original?
An original work of art is a one-off piece - painting, sculpture, mixed media - which is made by the artist themselves. When you buy an original piece of work, it comes with the knowledge that you own something incredibly special; almost a piece of the creator themselves. A limited edition is a translation of an original piece and there is a fixed number of these made. The piece will be signed by the artist, and the edition number will show you which number in the series you have purchased. Read more about the different types of art we sell here.
Will you install my art?
We do offer an installation service should you need assistance. You can contact our art consultants for further information here. Please note that this is currently only available in mainland UK.

Robert Bailey
Pencil artist Robert delights fans across the globe with his amazingly detailed Star Wars drawings and commissions of scenes from classic films. Even George Lucas has added them to his collection! Collectors of his Star Wars pieces include Harrison Ford, John Travolta, Tom Cruise, and the late Carrie Fisher. Robert’s art uses a method called hatching, whereby his closely-drawn parallel lines imply shade, tone and texture. The distance between the hatching marks determine how light or dark that area appears. Robert says about his art: “Only by practice can the dexterity of fine pencil work be kept up."
