A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

Happy 30th to one of my favorite films, and here's the very ad I clipped in my local newspaper, The Times-Picayune, on May 25th, 1977.

I give you a C+ for cutting on the lines Ralph!

Funny... that doesn look like Mark Hamill or Carrie Fisher in the artwork.

Oh, and you are missing a "." in your subject line.

Always bugged me that the movie had a 4-dot elipsis

Nice penmanship, though. Is that your handwriting or someone else's?

What a surprise.

But hey, even Mark Hamill doesn't look like Mark Hamill now.

R2-D2 and C-3PO haven't aged at all.
Maybe a tiny bit of tarnish ?

My handwriting from when I was almost 10.

Always bugged me that they redid a lot of publicity and cover shots for STAR WARS after Hamill had that surgery.

Nice!!!!

I wish I was at Celebration IV which starts today, but they moved it to LA this year.

Saw it during an afternoon matinee on the first day (and a bunch more times that summer).
Saw films 5 & 6 as well, but the original 1977 film is still the best. Still haven't seen movies 1, 2 or 3.

That poster only has 3 dots...
