Each year, the Ohio Star Wars Collectors Club holds a summer social where up to 200 members and guests gather together to celebrate Star Wars collecting. In recent years, this event has been highlighted by a club auction where donated items are auctioned to benefit both the club and a charity. Through the years, over $3000 has been raised for various charities.
For the 2011 OSWCC Summer Social in Cincinnati, Ohio, KennerCollector.com wanted to do something special for the club in addition to the Kenner-tastic tote bags given to OSWCC and a few other clubs for their annual events. Hockey is popular in Ohio, and the idea of creating a hockey jersey using Kenner blue was too fun to resist. Using this blue as the highlight, we utilized the University of Maine jersey and font scheme to create a one of a kind jersey for OSWCC. Customized with the official summer social patch, OSWCC name and number 97 (the club was founded in 1997), the jersey raised over $200 for the club and their charity.
