Star Wars Contemporary MotivatorsB&W Comic byGeorge Lucas1978 Pendulum Press

Pendulum Press (West Haven, Connecticut) in 1978 released a CONTEMPORARY MOTIVATORS series. This 32 page comic book (STAR WARS by George Lucas) was part of an educational kit that has all but been forgotten except by old-school Star Wars collectors and fans. It is an illlustrated (black and white by Charles Nicholas) adaptation (by Linda A. Cadrain) of STAR WARS EPISODE IV: A NEW HOPE. Dialog does not precisely match the movie and location of some scenes are altered, if not removed altogether. This is a rare, vintage paperback book.

I found a website that listed the top 10 rarest Star Wars Comics. This comic was listed as the third rarest.

From that website :

"In the late 70s, Pendulum Press was producing a series of teaching materials called “Contemporary Motivators.” The set included multiple copies of a black and white comic roughly retelling the story from A New Hope. Part of the set was this comic designed to make learning fun and “motivate” remedial readers to improve their reading skills."

"These comics come up on the market with sparse regularity"

"A 31-page loose adaptation of Star Wars by Linda A. Cadrain and Charles Nicholas."

I don't believe the book has ever been read but it has been shelved for a while and shows some shelf rub. Still well-stapled. Excellent interior pages.

I found 14 of these books at an estate sale. I will be listing them with a quantity of 14. If you want more than one, then you can increase the quantity you want to buy, asl long as the quantity left is still more than one.

I am retired and have the time to mail every day.

Thank you for viewing this listing.

Questions are promptly and gladly answered.
