Following the success of
Star Wars (1977) and
The Empire Strikes Back (1980), Topps released two brand-new sets of collectable trading cards in 1983 to coincide with
Return of the Jedi, the final installment of George Lucas's original
Star Wars trilogy. Now, for the first time, all 220 cards and 55 stickers are reprinted in one deluxe volume. As with the previous books in the
Topps series, this collection features the fronts and backs of each card, including character profiles, story cards, movie facts, quotes, trivia and puzzles featuring all of your favourite scenes from
Return of the Jedi. Also included is the Space Paintings subset featuring production illustrations by concept artist Ralph McQuarrie, four bonus trading cards, rare promotional images and an introduction and commentary by Gary Gerani, the original editor of the
Star Wars Topps series.
