- In this video, we share the linen backing and restoration processes being performed on a "Star Wars" British Quad movie poster. This poster was done for a UK Client "Vintage and Modern Movie Art" who will be opening shop soon!
The Poster:
The British quad poster for the 1977 film "Star Wars," designed by Tom Chantrell, is an iconic piece of cinematic art renowned for its dynamic composition and vibrant color palette. Chantrell's poster captures the essence of the film's adventurous spirit, featuring dramatic depictions of Luke, Leia, and Darth Vader, set against a backdrop of space battles and starships. The artwork's vivid and detailed style contributed to the film's allure, helping to attract audiences with its promise of epic adventure and intergalactic intrigue. This poster has since become a treasured collector's item and a symbol of the film's enduring legacy.

I clicked on the video expecting one of those fake restoration videos that have been so popular lately, but instead found a work of art. This is truly beautiful!
Glad you enjoyed it đ„°
I have some experience with the colored-pencil method of filling in crease lines from when I was a custom framer, and I must say the layering of colors in the 3:40 segment was magnificent.
As a poster and art print collector, as well as being an artist myself, I absolutely loved watching this process. The meeting of science, art, and craftsmanship is awesome. Subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed it đ„°
I donât understand. In my 50 years of life, every time Iâve put water on paper, it has warped and melted and died. What in the world is happening here? This is like fire freezing something.
Thank god i'm not the only one who is completely baffled
@@Shiftarus thereâs at least three of us⊠Because Iâm flummoxed
I suppose since it has that plastic sheet giving it structure, and then squeegeed/ mounted taut to the canvas so wrinkling wouldn't be a possibility.
Id also assume they go about it on a case by case basis, like if they were dealing with something using water soluble ink.
you can wet a paper so long as it's on a flat even surface that supports its shape. in order for it to dry flat you then have to weigh it down (or glue it I suppose?). paper warps when you let it dry without support because the fibers spread out unevenly.
not an expert though.
The force is with her, alwaysâŠ
A true understanding of colours and materials, and a genuine joy to watch.
Not gonna lie, when i clicked the video i thought it was just gonna be some random amateur youtube filling in a worn down poster with a colored pencil. Wasnt expecting this professional restoration demonstration.
đ„°
Glad you didn't lie
Artist's work in the service of the preservation of cinematographic heritage. Hats off to Madame !!
đ„°
Just yesterday i was randomly wondering if anyone was out there restoring works of art on paper. Now I know it exists for prints!
Now that's what I call using the force! Amazing
Love seeing this process in action.
Thanks for sharing these videos!
If only you could've gotten to the Halo 3 poster in Colorado before they recently took it down. Super cool work !
I personally like the cracks. What a beautiful restoration đ!
The combining of unexpected colours is astonishing.
all that work for such a short glamor shot. gotta give us at least a full minute to revel in the end result

Generative Fill in real life form! Great work!đ€đ»
Watching that close up colored pencil work is so thrilling for some reason.
Human touch will never be replaced
That is absolutely amazing work and talent đ and my favorite movie of all time too
WowâŠPeople with amazing skills always amazes me, Amazing!
For that kind of videos it's worth to watch youtube. Something peacefull, entertaining but also educative.
Seeing so much love being put into the restoration of one of my favourite posters made me very happy, and as an artist myself I could really appreciate the battle with the pinks and other colours in that laser beam to get it to blend. Awesome work, now subscribing! đđđđŻ

Amazing work!
Thank you for the flashback to my youth!
I gasp when I saw water being added, to clean it, not gonna lie, considering what water does to paper but this was sooooo well done. I love this
đ„°
Seriously fascinating process! Thank you for producing this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Damn right you showed off that laser pencilling. Those colors are so hard to do. This was an amazing watch.
đ„°
Utterly stunning work.
Thank you đ„°
Excellent work! Can you restore the rest of the franchise next?
A lot of work & true craftsmanship, well done. Great video đ
Very much enjoyed this. Amazing work!
Thank you đ
Thanks yt algorithm †liked & subbed. Especially loved the pacing of it, no rushing through with fast cuts for the pencils part.
Thank you đ„°
This is one of the most beautiful movie poster ever. You did an amazing job.
Thank you đ
that's pretty awesome
Cannot understand how that just doesnt destroy the poster, paper and colour. Very impressive
this is so satisfying.
Awesome!
I have an old iron maiden tour poster that was hanging on the ceiling of my old garage from the previous owner. That thing could really use some love and care like this.
Beautiful poster and another great job by you guys! I have the tall version of this poster framed in my office. Cherished every day. Star Wars forever â€
I was like Why are you adding water .. wouldn't that ruin the paper... good work.
May the algorithm be with your channel. Fantastic work and very soothing to watch.
I really wish I know somebody in my area who could do thisâŠâŠThis is increadible !
The skillset... definitely subscribed...đ
đ„°
That turned out beautiful.
Love- love the Before and After!
My ANxiety Shot up when i saw water being Sprayed onto this... Incredible work
Thank you đ
@@FourthConeRestoration Im going to Bring People over from Reddit Here
Extraordinary work! Just hopping you are appreciated by clients for such a detailed work!
This is so cool and satisfying. Doesn't soaking the poster like that make it really easy to accidentally tear?
thats where the mylar sheet comes in to hold everything in place..once the paper dries it will be strong and the mylar will peel right off...i did this to a few old maps....the mylar is key.
Amazing work. Had no idea this was even possible for paper. Thought it at least needed to be on canvas.
Looks like brand new đ
Very satisfying, both the process and the result!
Such a beautiful quad. Wish I had this version instead of the awards one.
Better than my attempts as a kid, just using a black Sharpie!
What a great work! Greetings from Chile
đ„°
Beautiful â€
Thank you đ„°
Wonderful restoration
wow... just WOW!
Really fascinating. Always wondered about the mounting process. And surprised that you showed the meticulous cosmetic touch up with the various Prismacolors.
Totally impressive, didnât know this was a thing. Awesome work. Wow just wow!
Thank you đ
CZcams recommendations got it right today.. wonderful stuff, looking forward to bingeing the rest of your videos
So kind đ„°
It's hypnotic to watch this process and I always want to watch more. Great work.
Such artistry! đđâŒïž

Impressive
Perfect

This is amazing. Fascinating and relaxing to watch! Subscribed đ
Thank you! đ
Pretty amazing work.
lots of weird back handed compliments in the comments. Amateur or not it doesn't matter this is a work of art
Good vid! Nice narration, closeups, and steps back đ
Thank you đ
When I think restoration I imagine something brought back to the quality when acquired.... but this has been restored to when it was just printed! Amazing.
Rian Johnson should watch this, to understand how cherished and valuable Star Wars is for some.
This is the most satisfying thing I've watched in a very long time. Awesome work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like seeing posters looking aged and used .. it adds character .
Attach of the crayons... Great job. I was a bit worried at the start with the water and bleach treatments on a paper poster...
I have Japanese posters and i only have one Belgian, they are really fragile paper because they are so thin, all are 80s posters đ Taking the Belgian one which is Scanners to Comic con to be signed by Michael Ironside, have to keep it clipped to the frame back
I do like that the creases are removed, but prefer the tri-fold lines remain unpainted. I don't know. It gives a bit more charm and helps it to retain its authenticity. Masterful work but that is just my opinion.
Câest top , je ne connaissais pas vive you tube

Amazing. I wish I had some old posters to send you.
đ„°
That was an incredible process and technique. But I could swear the color looks ever so slightly faded on the AFTER photo.
Amazing
It's just like digital restoration in photoshop but in real life. So cool. I bet this is immensely satisfying work.
I just wish you could clean disney out of star wars with this technique.
I love watching you guys' work & the outcome is always awesome! George The GlassMan
Thank you đ
Pretty cool work. I have your next project! Itâs an X-Men animated series poster I got from Pizza Hut in the 4th grade. I canât bring myself to trash it. đ
â€
I think it might be worth mentioning in future videos, for the benefits of idiots like me, that the posters are mounted on Linen Paper.
I was of the impression that linen was exclusively cloth, so I was confused when you mentioned mounting the poster onto paper, but then called it linen later on. I had to google to find out you can get linen based paper.
We are working on a video explaining linen backing and it's benefits! For our process specifically, we mount an acid-free barrier paper onto the linen before mounting the poster. Hope that clears it up a little!
crazy u guys have a full process of persevering the paper. wonder who thought of that
The 1 dislike must be a Disney exec.
đ
If you do it, it is called alteration. But if you pay $2k to get it done. It is restoration and adds more value
SO RAD! As a SW Fanboy I'd rather watch this then what's on Disney+ right now! lol
đ„°
Beautiful work as always! I love the UK Quad format, that wide horizontal frame always feels epic.
What is the largest size that you're able to restore? 3-sheets? 6-sheets?
Iâd sell my son to own that poster!
Mesmerizing work! It got me thinking, what if the poster is printed on both sides? How different is the process?
Depends entirely on what the client wants done! We do have other processes to flatten the paper without covering the back as well đ
Your work is awesome. Your restorer's attention to detail is phenomenal.
I've been watching fine arts restoration and conservation on the Baumgartner Restoration channel for years and I'm surprised that you'd use something like paints and colored pencils. I would have thought you'd want something reversible. Hosing it down with water was also surprising but I don't know how durable this poster paper is and it seems like you got a favorable result.
All of our restoration techniques are reversible đ
â@@FourthConeRestoration I'd love to hear more about how it is reversible!
Hey, it turns out this wasn't a clickbait at all! đ±.
Wow what an amazing job! Lovely video too. Can you do this if the poster has been signed or will the ink from the signatures bleed?
Yes, we work with signed posters all of the time! We test each signature and adjust our process accordingly đ
The magic of somehow restoring a poster by drenching it in water and 'bleaching agent'
How the heck does the paper not disintegrate under all that water and squeegeeing? Shocked
Pretty work. MTFBWY
coo
If you're using water based paints for restoration, does that mean those colors will wash out if you ever had to restore it again?
you do incredible work. just out of curiosity, how much would you chare for a job like this?
