A collecting panel on Star Wars trading cards, beginning with the original card sets that helped define the early merchandise era. The session covered why cards remain appealing to collectors, how sets differ by publisher, country, year and format and what makes certain cards or releases challenging to complete. The panel also discussed condition, display, storage and the relationship between cards and other printed collectibles. It was designed for fans who either collected cards already or wanted to understand why a small, inexpensive format can become a deep collecting specialty.
