The Star Wars 'The Original Topps Trading Card Series, Volume One' collects trading cards produced by The Topps Company during the release of 'Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.' Inside this volume is the complete set of 330 cards and 55 stickers reproduced for those who either weren't lucky enough to collect them all the first time, or perhaps weren't even born yet.
These reprinted Star Wars trading cards feature classic photos, movie trivia, character bios and actor profiles. This vintage collection also comes complete with four additional bonus trading cards to add to your collection, and even a first ever reprinting of rare Star Wars cards originally found in packages of Wonder Bread as well.
