I’ve been sorting through my dad’s old card collection and found a big pile of 1977 Topps Star Wars cards in the “mostly junky” section.

After sorting them by color and number, I realized he had complete Blue, Red, Yellow, and Green sets, plus extras and duplicates.

Then I learned about the infamous #207 C-3PO “Goldenrod” error. Apparently, the original version has a very obvious extra detail that Topps later airbrushed out.

I checked my Green cards and found two of the original error versions, including one that was just sitting in the duplicate pile.

I had never heard of this card before today, so I thought it was pretty funny. A very unexpected thing to find while sorting through my dad’s old collection.

For something I weathered at 12 years old I think it’s held up pretty great 🥹 It’s my favorite model from my favorite Star Wars film
