I enjoy flicking through The Essential Guide to Characters - released in the mid '90s, it's refreshingly free from prequel references (see C3PO's back story, for example).

When I was a kid I had this Star Wars activity book which I'd like to see again. I can only remember a couple of pages from the book: there was "how to make a Darth Vader dime bank" (being a British kid I had no idea what a "dime" was), and a Vader afterimage-type optical illusion (stare at the centre of this image, then at a blank wall, and Vader will appear before you). Did anyone else have this?
