Star Wars Archives: 1977-1983
It wouldn't surprise me that *most* everything that's in this book is something that I've seen before, but you know what? I'm not going to waste my time trying to cross-reference everything that's in all of the other Star Wars books in my collection. That doesn't matter to me. Is this book expensive? Yes. But is it worth having? Yes (in my opinion). Is it impressive as a presentation? YES! The sheer scale of the book's format made me say *out loud* "wow!" at some of the graphics. Ralph McQuarrie's Docking Bay 94 painting is given a two-page spread, and it's stunning at this scale.
I'd say don't listen to one naysayer - if you're a Star Wars fan and you can afford it, buy a copy!
