Antiques Roadshow Star Wars Appraisal
April 15, 2008
If you happen to catch Antiques Roadshow last night, you may have seen collector Matt Gibson get an early Star Wars printing block appraised at $300-400!
An extremely rare piece, this particular block was used to print ads for Dolby’s new six-track stereo system, a breakthrough in theatrical sound presentation that Star Wars helped to make popular. Ads printed from this block appeared as early as December, 1976, in industry trade magazines such as Boxoffice.

How could it be only worth $300! Star Wars Collectables with the right buyer it would be worth $1000s

Now that is a sweet Star Wars collectible! I wish I had found something like that. The Lego Collectibles person is right though, you could get way more for that piece, especially with the rarity of it. Thanks for showing it, I really like it.
