Marvel Star Wars #1 Proof
Here is the four color key from the first issue of Star Wars. It’s made up of four acetate sheets. From the top down they are black, blue, red and, yellow. This is truly a wonderful part of Star Wars history. Here is a scan of the sheets all together. When compared to the printed cover, the clarity and crispness of the colors truly stands out.

The second image is of the black sheet alone that gives a clearer look before the color overlays are added.
