This week, let\u2019s take a look at a\u00a0sign that contains an\u00a0infamous spelling error in which the proud capital of the Galactic Republic is misspelled \u201cCoruscnat.\u201d A second error even snuck into the small text at the base of the poster. For historical purposes I recreated the sign with the errors intact.<\/p>\n

I point this out\u00a0not to make fun of the mistakes. In my own work as a designer, I can admit that this sort of thing happens all the time, and I don\u2019t even have the excuse of working with an alien language.<\/p>\n

So how should we chalk this up? Human error? A catastrophic shattering of the players\u2019 suspension of disbelief? Just another use of fake space letters to which the rules don\u2019t apply? Or can we imagine that a\u00a0minister at the Republic Bureau of Tourism and Trade fobbed off responsibility for the final review of a new advertising campaign on an intern who both did not speak Basic as a first language and also had hit the spice a little too hard the night before? Well, probably the first, but I can go with the last too.<\/p>\n

Errors aside, this is a fun poster with a lot going on from the starbursts and speed lines to the\u00a0bold swathes of color and distressed text.<\/p>\n

The M logo which I\u2019d previously thought simply applied to a random cosmetics company<\/a> seems in fact to be the branding used by the Coruscant Market, and is seen on many posters around the Republic\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

A second, similar poster uses many of the same elements as the first, but in a vertical layout. It does not contain the same spelling mistake, which perhaps proves that the good ol’ intern wasn\u2019t completely asleep at the wheel.<\/p>\n
