Lara Starr | September 28, 2012

It was the summer of 1977, and my whole family—like the rest of the country—had Star Wars fever!

Here’s my brother and I in our t-shirts, off to see the movie (again), and that Christmas we all got the gift of Star Wars: comic books for me, a lightsaber for my brother, and my mom got a picture-disc LP record of the soundtrack.
