This is a recent addition to the collection. It is an ILM cast and crew shirt made for The Empire Strikes Back. They did reuse this image for Star Wars Episode III but the one featured here is the original. This shirt is so rare that I had never seen a picture of it until I bought this example. Not sure how many exist but I cannot imagine too many are around.

This shirt was only given to crew members working on Empire Strikes Back and Return Of The Jedi (1979-1983).Rotoscoping is an animation technique where one draws over the original film (laser blasts/ lightsabers).
