    Darth Vader Wants You!



    JD sent in this classic shot from Lord Vaders visit to the Parmatown Mall in July of 1980, at the time Vader was looking to open an Ohio branch of the Empire.
    Thanks JD!

          I have some similar pictures (well, my mom has them) from an appearance at store in Maine from around that time. I was 4 years old, and so excited to go see Darth Vader. Well, we get there and I see him in person, and freak out. Wouldn't go near him.

          I've got a sample of some Star Wars wallpaper that my mom got him to sign. Is that worth anything? I assume it's some random guy in the suit, so it's not really a famous person's autograph, but...?

            The Darth Vader Tour...

            He visited my mom's car dealership (I think around the summer of 79 or 80) and I got an autographed picture. I couldn't make out the autograph and always wondered if it said David Prowse or Darth Vader. I should take a picture of it and post it one of these days if I can find it. Anybody know who went on the tour as Darth Vader?

                  I just assumed he was doing a Stayin' Alive dance routine.
