My first (mini) loft find in 20 years!

Topps wide vision cards and limited cards from the ccg if I'm not mistaken. I never got into the ccg because at the time I was (shamefully) well into the Star Trek ccg by decipher.

I remember spending a fortune on those things to get my hands on a future enterprise.
 
That price list is quality, if only we were still paying that. 1996 is still fresh in the memory for many reasons and I still recall it as being quite recent, and then I think "**** me, that's 20 years ago !" :eek:

Mate, I spent a goddam fortune on the CCG. Don't feel bad, TNG was on pretty much non stop in my house at university when I collected these cards. But don't tell anyone....

Neil, I used to keep a diary and I found my 1991 diary yesterday. I was able to look up what I was doing on the day 25 yrs ago. It was very cool but **** scary as I realised that when the next 25 pass I'll be drawing my pension. ****.
 
Forgot to say: the five photos in the bottom right of the picture above were taken by me in 1999 in Blackpool at a small comic and film con in a hotel there. I'll add a bigger image later but they show Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, Michael Carter (Bib Fortuna), Paul Blake (Greedo), Femi Taylor (Oola) and Maria De Aragon (Greedo for some close up shots). I got them to sign the trilogy "ingot" style relrease poster seen in this thread:

I completely forgot I even took photos of them, so to find these was a real bonus.
 
The small convention at a Blackpool hotel where you took the photos, was it the Norbrek Castle Hotel ? If it was, I attended the same event !
