Sorry Wolfie. Was a requirement placed on us for the contest. It very might be a licensing constraint but I am not sure.

David RI see from Amazon that there are 2 more books coming in Spring 2016, one for the first SW Galaxy set !

Bill DeFranzoMy suggestion for a future book would be a combination of Civil War News and Battle followed by a book covering Scoops. This latest book is great!

I looked around the net and couldn't find anything on them except for a couple of photos of them still in the book. One of the card backs is shown and towards the bottom in red it reads "CARD WRAPPER, SERIES 1, 1977 1/4". So maybe they all show pics of the wrappers from the different series. Here's a pic:

Don NortonToday I received one of these books as a birthday gift. It is very thick, and filled with all kinds of info only geeks like us would love. I never completed any of the original sets, so it is nice to see all the cards and stickers.
The 4 extra cards are a pic of the wrapper, one of the first box, and two stickers, but they are not stickers -
Geriani's forward is very interesting, lots of little tidbits how the series of cards almost didn't make it. Hope they make a book about the other Star Wars movies, and I like Bill's idea about one on Civil War News and Battle!
