The term "local 253" was coined on Ardon Crell's card for the May 1998 Jabba's Palace Limited expansion set of Decipher, Inc.'s Star Wars Customizable Card Game. While "local 253" is the capitalization used on that card, Star Wars: Behind the Magic, released September 1 of the same year, along with Crell's entry in 2008's The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, would instead use the "Local 253" capitalization. The number 253 is shared with Decipher's address of 253 Granby St, Norfolk, Virginia.
