1980 Newspaper Ad Featuring Vinyl Cape Jawa Illustration
It was the carrying case that led me to the ad, but as soon as I spotted this 1980 treasure and saw the vinyl cape Jawa I knew I had to share it with you guys. The Jawa was my very first Star Wars action figure as a kid, and even back then my Jawa had the cloth cape. These vinyl guys are pretty uncommon and tough to find, making the ad probably as close as I’ll get to one this month.
