The only unlicensed poster on our list of rarities, we'd be remiss without mentioning the famously obscure Yoda Mardi Gras poster from 1981, devised by an artist calling him/herself "L. Graff" and limiting the poster run to 770 pieces (well, at least for this version, which is called the "Red Issue"). Extremely little is known about the poster, which depicts the Jedi Master planted on the street signs for Toulouse and Bourbon sipping a hurricane. Not that lack of information or its unsanctioned status matters -- collectors still shell out hundreds of dollars for this gem when it's offered (which isn't often), caving to the irresistible folk-art appeal of the illustration. (From the collection of Lucas Licensing's Chris Spitale -- and no, we didn't miss the irony).
