Hello again my friends and welcome back. I’m continuing on with the exploration of The Toy Insider’s “Holiday Of Play” event which was held at the Manhattan Penthouse. The first chapter of this coverage can be seen HERE if you somehow missed it and since we are walking aisle by aisle you’ll want to look at that one first.
Hello again my friends and welcome back to my presentation for “Star Wars Day”. As I mentioned in CHAPTER ONE; I’m showcasing photos that were captured on devices of the time at the 2002 exhibit “Star Wars: The Magic Of Myth” which was being held at the Brooklyn Museum. Let’s continue along with this adventure from a “long time ago” LOL.
Today is “Star Wars Day” so “May The Fourth Be With You” LOL. I realize that its a corny statement but hey, the world of geek rallies behind it and so do I. In honor of this special day for one of my very favorite films, I dug up some old photos from the 2002 exhibit “Star Wars: The Magic Of Myth” that I attended with friends at the Brooklyn Museum. The exhibit was fantastic and showcased costumes, models and puppets from all of the “Star Wars” films up until that time which would have been “Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace” as the latest since “Star Wars: Episode II: Attack Of The Clones” had only just opened a couple of weeks before we attended this exhibit. Armed with the photographic technology of the time my friend James and I wandered and snapped a lot of photos which you can see below. The order is not as uniform as I would do nowadays but remember this was from a time before I did the photo journalist stuff. Hope you enjoy the presentation.
“A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away….” – Those were the words that audiences across the land first experienced when the film “Star Wars” first opened in 1977 and today is the day that fans celebrate it.
