Star Wars ANH Mosep 8x10 Multi-Signed Stuart Freeborn Maley & Jones BECKETT

From the Steve Grad Autograph Collection – an exceptionally rare 8x10 black and white photograph of Mosep, the cantina alien from Star Wars: A New Hope. This photo has been personally obtained and signed in person by Steve Grad from three key contributors tied to the creation and portrayal of the character:

• Stuart Freeborn (d. 2013) – the legendary makeup and creature effects designer who created the Mosep mask. Freeborn is regarded as one of the most influential makeup artists in film history, with his Star Wars contributions including Yoda, Chewbacca, and countless iconic aliens. His passing in 2013 makes his signature increasingly sought after.

• Nick Maley – affectionately known as “That Yoda Guy”, Maley was a vital member of the Star Wars creature effects team, assisting in bringing Yoda and many other creatures to life. His work remains celebrated among fans and historians of the series.

• Annette Jones – the actress inside the Mosep costume, who not only signed but also inscribed the name “Mosep,” completing the piece with the performer’s personal touch.

The fact that this image carries all three signatures makes it extraordinarily rare—quite possibly unique. While it cannot be confirmed as a true 1/1, the likelihood of another example signed by Freeborn, Maley, and Jones together is extremely slim.

• Size: 8x10

• Ink: Blue

• Authentication: BECKETT LOA (AC94380) – certifying all three signatures as authentic.

• From the Steve Grad Autograph Collection

Rarity & Importance:
This photo is a museum-quality collectible capturing the collaboration of design, makeup, and performance that made the Star Wars universe so groundbreaking. Freeborn’s passing in 2013 only amplifies the desirability and historical importance of this piece.
