“Authentic Star Wars Collector’s Items” from 1977

There’s a lot of goofy stuff in this 1977 advertisement, but my favorite of all has to be the “Authentic Darth Vader Communicator!” It’s a $2.50 mirror, kids, and if that isn’t weird for you, I’d like to point out that $2.50 in 1977 dollars is the equivalent of $10.28 today. That’s a pricey communicator!
