KILIAN ENTERPRISES

Kilian Enterprises was an independent printing company founded by Jeff Kilian. Over the years, Kilian had released a number of very beautiful and sought-after anniversary and limited edition movie art posters.

In 1985, with the permission of Lucasfilm, Ltd., Kilian released the Star Wars Saga American One-Sheet Poster Checklist which has become known as the Star War Poster of Posters. This poster features pictures and information about every American version one sheet issued for Star Wars and its sequels up to the date of publication.

Kilian followed up these posters with anniversary issues for the Star Wars series, Indiana Jones, Alien and The Day The Earth Stood Still. They also issued limited edition posters for Who Framed Roger Rabbit, including two gold mylar "Jessica Rabbit" posters and a set of commemoratives.

Kilian created their own artwork or used well-known established poster artists to create new artwork, with the approval of the studio. The posters issued by Kilian were normally individually numbered.

By definition, the posters issued by Kilian are NOT considered "legitimate movie art" because they are not released by movie studios in conjunction with the release of a film and they are released for sale to the public. However, because their posters present new artwork, even many hard line collectors accept these posters as "collectible" because they contain artwork not available on any other poster.
