Star Wars Celebration is a turning point for many autograph collectors, myself included. I started collecting in-person Star Wars autographs four years before my first Celebration, picking up 2-3 a year at my local convention. At my first Celebration in 2010 I came home with over 20.

Only two months ago I wrote about Covcon’s smaller show Covcon Junior and on May 7th we finally saw the return of their main event. Like Covcon Junior, the event was run in aid of ‘Maggie’s’ – a cancer support charity nominated by Bond girl Caroline Munro.
