Original 2 1/2” x 3 1/2” ink and watercolor painting of a 1977 Topps Star Wars “Special Mission for Artoo-Deeto” (#70) trading card by Topps artist Andy Friedman. Signed, dated, and marked “1/1” by artist (verso). Slabbed by PSA. One of the few non-pack-pulled works of original art to be encapsulated by PSA before the grading company discontinued the service. Misidentified label description of “Card” tells the story of an early misunderstanding within the trading card industry of 1/1 original art as a recognized collectible. Extremely rare historical item.
