Han Solo / Star Wars: A New Hope / What's a lone wolf like Han Solo doing in an / Imperial stormtrooper's armor? It's a disguise / he and Luke Skywalker have "borrowed" to / help in their attempt to rescue Princess Leia / from the clutches of the evil Darth Vader. Not / that Solo cares much for princesses--he's mostly / interested in the reward he might get for her / safe return to the Rebel Alliance. Little does he / know that before the rescue is accomplished, / he'll do battle with real stormtroopers, an / Imperial trash compactor and, perhaps most / formidable of all, the plucky Princess herself. / Kristina Kline-Gaughran / Hallmark Keepsake Artist / Thirteenth in the Series. / Look for 13 on this ornament. / For decorative use only. / Concue a des fins decoratives seulement. / handcrafted - dated 2009
