Flickr: Growing Up Star Wars: 1977-1985
Glen Mullaly (a group admin) says: Welcome to Growing Up Star Wars!
With the creation of this group you now have permission to post that Polaroid of yourself as Princess Leia in 1977 (I’m talking to you, Bob) or that crayon portrait you did of the Death Star Droid that hung on your parent’s fridge for months in 1979 until someone spilled Kool-Aid on it. Even that great shot of your little brother meeting an off-model Darth Vader at some local in-store promotion in 1983.
Let your vintage Star Wars fan freak flag fly free!
About Growing Up Star Wars: 1977-1985
A nostalgic look back at the world-wide Star Wars phenomenon through the creativity of the first generation of young people to experience it. Vintage photographs and scans of childhood Star Wars drawings, costumes, toys, homemade crafts, birthday cakes, local showings and events (and local ads for such) and more. The focus is on the personal experience and the variation & customization that was common in the early days of Star Wars.
Only vintage (1977-1985) photographs, or scans/photos of vintage kid’s art & crafts please. Found photos are fine, but need to be from your own collection. No borrowed or swiped internet photos without express permission of the owner! Photos of toys need to be vintage, not just of vintage toys. Also — please be sure that the Star Wars elements of the photo or scan are large enough to see clearly and that you DATE THE IMAGE. Sorry, but images that do not fit within the rules of this group may be removed.
***** A quick note to all those visiting from outside of the Flickr community: We’re really happy you’ve stopped by, but just to let you know that not all images will be visible until you join the group. Most, just not all. Thanks!
