WOOHOO I hit the mother lode!!! ...almost

Recommended Posts

My parents were cleaning up the atttic over the last week or so and got me to come over and cull through all the "junk" I left behind.

And what did I find???

84 STAR WARS trading cards circa 1977!!

So Dave thinks to himself "woohoo, jump tix for this weekend if I can find the right buyer". So off I go to the great online library we call the internet and I find http://www.starwarscards.net/vintsw2.html.

Fuck. Thirty bucks for a complete set??? How much of this crap must still be out there? So much for funding a season o' jumps. Oh well, it brought back some memories (y'know how Eric Foreman of That 70's Show is a Star Wars Geek? Welll....think of a 9 year old being plunked on that set as the geeky neighbor kid who turns into a wacko skydiver 25 years later).

Anyhoo, you can bet I'll have some interesting Avatars in the future as my scanner gets a workout. And, BTW, anyone who cares to trade me a new main for the illusive card #67 is welcome to PM me ;););):P

May the Force be with you all

Dave

No you don't Brian - I DO

Now, to REALLY stir you up, on the back of some cards there is a bio. From card #85 (Carrie Fisher quote on her character):

"she's great! She's not some cream-filled damsel in distress. She can do it on her own" :o:o:o;)

Seriously. Oh my twisted mind...

I have an unopened box of Star Wars Pez dispensers (circa late 1970s) - there's storm troopers, Darth Vaders, even Boba Fett. I have no idea how much it's worth, but I kept it because it was a gift.

Why someone would want 30-year old Pez candy is beyond me. I think it's still well within the shelf-life of that stuff though.
