The mats were originally produced for a 2002 fundraising dinner and screening of Attack of the Clones. Jerome Blake, patron of MediCinema, came up with the idea of autographing the mats and auctioning them to raise money for MediCinema. With his appearance in Episode III as Mas Amedda, he was able to secure the autographs of all of Revenge of the Sith's principal performers.

Look for the remaining planetary maps to auctioned shortly, including Tatooine, Dagobah, Kamino and Hoth. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to MediCinema, the charity that installs state-of-the-art cinemas in hospitals for patients.

With big screen, surround sound, tiered seating and 35 mm projector MediCinema screens present day releases to patients including those in beds and wheelchairs. Sitting in the all encompassing environment of a cinema the patients, joined by their families and carers, can enjoy the magic of the silver screen, with nursing staff on duty throughout each and every screening. Admission is free to this very special audience, an audience who can't go home at the end of the movie.
