1982: STAR WARS MAILAWAY DISPLAY STANDS ADVERT (Palitoy)

From the summer of 1982: a Palitoy ad for one of the least interesting (but possibly most useful) STAR WARS toy mailaways: molded plastic display stands for the action figure range.  

The displays, with handy little pegs that worked with the holes drilled into the feet of the figures, were plastic with a reversible cardboard backdrop approximating scenes from THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK.

  1. I've always loved this piece of art, its so charming the way it captures the detail of the action figures.
