SKU Footer

 A rare first-release carded R2D2 with SKU footer.  Our unpunched 12 Back-A example is very clean exhibiting few flaws.  There is evidence of a price tag sticker in the top corner next to Luke’s sword.  Although there is evidence of a small paper loss there is no price tag sticker residue as one would expect.  The reverse is flawless sans a very light horizontal vein through the Land Speeder.  Bubble is clear and retains perfect form.  R2 is a timeless classic, and as such, we expect collectors to pay special attention to his first-release SKU footer when it hits the auction block. Encapsulated by AFA (80, 80-85-80), #15169024
