This item is “hobby fresh” and part of a single-owner collection made available for the very first time. In the late 1970’s, our consignor was a manager at a West Coast department store chain called Fedco. With Star Wars mania already underway, he secured a handful of action figures from the back of the store before they hit shelves (and before they were punched and price tagged). He had the foresight to keep the collection stored away and sealed in their original packages for almost 45 years. The result is a fantastic, fresh-to-market collection, most with amazing color – all unpunched and without stickers!

Unpunched Death Squad Commander on 20 Back-A card from 1978. Imperfections on card front include veining/creasing in upper and lower corners as well as a vertical vein near the center of card. There is also a bit of surface wear next to the S in the Star Wars logo at the top. No edge wear, outstanding color. No price tag sticker. Imperfections on the back of the card are found at midcard. Bubble is clear with a dent found near the shoulder. Strong DSC action figure within. A nice entry level single-owner DSC example available for the very first time!  Encapsulated by AFA (75, 75-75-85), #11851749
