Posters promoting the 1981 Mardi Gras in New Orleans such as an image of Yoda sitting on a Bourbon Street lamp-post were not officially authorised by Star Wars creator George Lucas.
The movie mogul only became aware of their existence when Allan Trosclair (head of security for Lucas from 1981-85) visited the city that year.
Lucas, notoriously protective of the Star Wars franchise, was amused, however, and chose to not have his legal department pursue a case of copyright infringement.
