Ah, May the 4th! A day etched in the hearts of sci-fi enthusiasts everywhere. But how did this seemingly ordinary date become a galactic pop culture celebration? Buckle up, space cowboys, because we're taking a lightspeed trip through the origins of "May the Fourth Be With You."

The legend (and it is truly epic) traces back to 1979. Margaret Thatcher, the newly elected Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, received a congratulatory newspaper ad that declared, "May the Fourth Be With You, Maggie." This clever play on the iconic Star Wars line, "May the Force be with you," sparked a fan frenzy.

Over the years, the beloved pun evolved into an unofficial holiday, a day to celebrate the saga that whisked us away to a galaxy far, far away. From epic lightsaber duels to unforgettable characters, Star Wars has become a pop culture phenomenon that transcends generations.

But the Force isn't the only thing with us here at Julien’s. TCM & Julien's presents Hollywood Legends: Danger, Disaster & Disco auction coming soon! The momentous event is sure to have collectors and fans alike on the edge of their seats. Stay tuned, because on the horizon gleams a treasure trove of Hollywood history.

While the property isn’t live just yet, let's just say, there might be a few props that would make even Han Solo raise an eyebrow. Keep your eyes peeled, true believers, because the Force – and some truly phenomenal memorabilia – is soon to be with you.
