“Jabba’s Palace Grill” Print by Tom Hodges (Celebration V)

This was one of several prints that the artist Tom Hodges gave away a certain times during Celebration V. (Tom did this set of sketch cards for me a few months ago.) These were companion pieces to his main print, which he was selling at the convention. Entitled the “Star Wars Universe Dream Park,” it’s a map of a Star Wars-themed amusement park.

This particular print is for “Jabba’s Palace Grill” — a restaurant in the park, and is 11″x17″ in size. Salacious Crumb is featured very prominently (which is somewhat unusual), but you can also see part of Jabba’s body in the background. It’s printed on paper that’s quite thin — more of a poster than an art print — but you can’t complain too much about something that was free. You just have to be careful not to damage it.
