Today I am showing off a card I have been waiting to show off on Star Wars day.
Last year, I was finally able to acquire my number one most wanted Star Wars card in the 1977 Topps Star Wars #1 Luke Skywalker. Or in other card terms, his rookie card.
I don't care about the grade at all, I am not a grading card collector, but it's the fact that I own this card finally that does. If you didn't know this is the most valuable card from that Star Wars set so it has taken me awhile to acquire it. But, I am always paying attention to people listing cards on Twitter because sometimes they are willing to trade, which is where I got lucky with this one.
Thanks again to @JohnnyOeleven for the trade.

Before I close, I also wanted to remind you of the Coffee Card Hall Of Fame voting and that it needs you guys to nominate cards in. So far ONLY 4 cards have been nominated!!
Details on the Coffee Card Hall Of Fame can be found HERE. I may add this to every post from here on out for a reminder as I will forget about this too! Haha!
1977 Topps Star Wars are the first packs of trading cards I remember opening. Absolutely love this set... just like I love the Star Wars franchise. My favorite Star Wars card is the Battle in Outer Space card from this set. It has the same picture that was on my Star Wars lunch pail.
ReplyDeleteAs for Star Wars plans... I might build a Lego set and write a post. We'll have to see.
Hope you chose a post! Haven't checked yet
DeleteIt's a dreary rainy day here. I may get 4 cups in today. I just finished the 2nd one. There are a few Star Wars fans in my house, but I am not one of them. Ready for cup #3? Enjoy the Saturday.
