Is there any mention of the SWHS in Taschen’s The Star Wars Archives, 1977-1983?

It would make the book that much easier a purchase, especially at the 40th anniversary price which can almost fit my budget.

There is, in fact - there’s a section for it that’s 5 pages long with some great text and photos.

Of course, there are two versions of the book now: the giant landscape-oriented coffee table book, and the much smaller portrait-oriented version that came out after. The large one is huge and a bit unwieldy, but the photos are gorgeous at that size. I have the large version, but I am tempted to get the smaller one just for ease of reading and photo scanning.

It’s actually the reason that I kept the copy of Star Wars Year by Year that I was gifted years ago.

I never picked that up. I think I was disappointed by the skimming over of the SWHS in that, but I can’t remember…what was actually in it?
