Star Wars Wrapping Paper (With Jabba the Hutt) by Hallmark

Strangely, this is the first gift wrap to make its way into my collection. I’m not sure if it’s because they don’t normally put Jabba on wrapping paper, or because wrapping paper is such a disposable commodity that people don’t normally collect it. Probably a bit of both.

The label has no date on it, but the fact that it uses the CGI version of Jabba obviously puts it at least in the late 90s, after the “Special Editions” were released. The color scheme certainly has a 90’s feel to it, but it’s hard to say exactly when it was made.

There’s something kind of hilarious about this whole design.
