STAR WARS: PANASONIC COMMERCIAL (1988) - Set of Four Hand-Drawn Ralph McQuarrie Sparky and Speedo Thumbnail Sketches and Drawings for Production Painting - Four pages of thumbnail sketches and drawings for a production painting of Sparky and Speedo hand-drawn by renowned concept illustrator Ralph McQuarrie for a series of Star Wars-themed Panasonic commercials. Beginning in 1988, franchise creator George Lucas appeared with R2-D2 and a new creation, a genius talking robot named Sparky, in ads promoting Panasonic's high-tech Maclord videocassette players. At the specific request of Panasonic president Masaharu Matsushita, Sparky was designed by McQuarrie, whose concept designs for the original trilogy resulted in some of the most iconic and futuristic characters, sets, and technologies in modern science-fiction. These prelims for a production painting depicting Sparky with a smaller dog-like robot known as Speedo are rendered in graphite, two on tissue paper and two on vellum. One drawing with a primitive version of the dog-bot is taped to vellum backing. The set exhibits graphite smudging and some tearing along the sheets' edges.
