San Diego Comic Con is offering some fantastic prizes for attendees who love the Star Wars franchise. Any fan who sets eyes on these pieces of memorabilia will be green with envy.
(San Diego, California) — Visitors to the PSA booth (#5617) at the ComicCon® International: San Diego, July 9 – 12, 2015, will have the exciting opportunity to win a free photo autographed by four of the stars of the 1977 Star Wars© cast.
The photo showing the actors in costume was personally signed by Harrison Ford (“Han Solo”), Mark Hamill (“Luke Skywalker”), Carrie Fisher (“Princess Leia Organa”) and Peter Mayhew (“Chewbacca”). The signatures have been certified authentic by PSA/DNA, the autograph authentication division of PSA.
While supplies last, visitors to the PSA booth can receive free samples of PSA-certified Star Wars trading cards and complimentary copies of a special ComicCon edition of SMR magazine with feature stories about Star Wars collectibles. SMR is a monthly magazine filled with useful information about trading cards, autographs and other entertainment, sports and historical memorabilia and collectibles.
PSA (www.PSAcard.com) is the world’s largest trading card, autograph and memorabilia authentication, grading and certification service. Since 1991, PSA experts have examined and certified over 20 million collectibles with a combined value of over $1 billion.
“Star Wars trading cards and cast members’ autographs are popular collectibles, and some items bring very high prices at auction. We’re seeing a resurgence in market activity now because of the tremendous anticipation about the seventh Star Wars movie that is scheduled for release in December,” said PSA President Joe Orlando.
The estimated value of the autographed Star Wars cast photo is $1,000. No purchase is necessary to enter the drawing, and the winner does not need to be present for the drawing. Complete rules and an entry form are online at www.PSAcard.com/comiccon.
Experts from PSA/DNA Authentication Services will be at the show daily to provide autograph certification services. PSA/DNA will offer a special $10 authentication rate for any autographs obtained at the show and submitted for certification at the PSA booth. Proof of autograph purchase must accompany the signature when submitting it for certification. PSA Customer Service representatives will be at the booth to provide submissions information.
The July 2015 ComicCon International: San Diego (www.comic-con.org/cci) will be held in the San Diego Convention Center 111 W. Harbor Dr., San Diego, California.

Len Cline has been a fan of Star Wars since he saw a pirated “A New Hope” with a TV dinner when he was around 3 (He only remembers the Tantive 4 battle), he was in his “Primary Star Wars Introduction Age” (PSWIA for short) (aka. 7 years) when “Revenge of the Sith” came out. Len fell out of the active Star Wars fandom for a few years and explored the majority of science fiction eras (except for the 90’s , which is a big deal (Except for Star Trek) until he was brought back through the Star Wars podcasting community. Len loves to read science fiction (Asimov being his favourite writer) and also enjoys the classics (Dostoyevsky anyone?). He loves all things philosophy (Cogito ergo sum!), politics (De Toqueville and Machiavelli!), and poetry (Mathew Arnold and T.S. Eliot for the win!). He is also an anglophile. Len’s worldview is colored by many things in his life: He’s a devout Catholic and holds his beliefs high, as well as believing that morality and personal responsibility are paramount. Len hopes to move to Europe to attend college for philosophy and/or other social sciences. He then aims to put his studies to good use for the world (hopefully just like Luke Skywalker!).
