Publisher's Synopsis

The ultimate collection of "Star Wars" collectibles. Filled with facts, anecdotes and lore about the rarest and most desirable objects in the "Star Wars" universe and written by the man with the collection everyone wants to see. "Star Wars: 1,000 Collectibles" presents a different way of looking at the Star Wars experience, taking the reader on a journey through cool and kitsch, from toys to costumes to life-size statues made of LEGO bricks to otherwise - ordinary consumer goods such as sweets, clothing, toothpaste - and much, much more. A record and appreciation of 1,000 collectible "Star Wars" objects from the largest private collection in the known universe, this stunning collection of photos and colourful anecdotes mixes fun with nostalgia, delighting the casual fan and providing the serious collector with indispensable reference material. Here for the first time is a comprehensive field guide to the constantly expanding, all-encompassing, often surreal lifestyle of collecting "Star Wars".
