Star Wars Playboy 1983

I share these photos because they remind me of how modern media's ways are not knew merely faster, more bionic. 

In 1983, Rolling Stone featured a playful “Beach Day” photo shoot with the Star Wars cast to promote Return of the Jedi.
Shot at Stinson Beach, California, Carrie Fisher posed in her iconic Leia bikini alongside Darth Vader, Ewoks, and others.
Photographed by Aaron Rapoport, the shoot brought a lighthearted, beachy twist to the galaxy far, far away.
It captured Carrie Fisher’s charisma and gave fans a rare, fun look at the cast outside the movie’s epic tone.
