Thanks,

A couple of more questions.

The maps in my copy of Palace of the Vampire Queen where never stapled to the book. Is this unusual?

All of the book still have the original price tag on the back of them. Is this bad?

Recently received LABYRINTHINE: Labyrinthine

Cover


Back page


I believe this to be a newly discovered printing before the digest version.  It came in the standard WW plastic bag, with a paperclip holding all the sheets together and the sheets are 8.5x11.  Curiously, there is no copyright or mention of the authors or WW.  The rules/write-up is mostly the same as the digest version, but there are a few differences in the variable play section, including a reference to TSR's Dungeons & Dragons and Greyhawk.  The creature/player chits are also a bit different, being printed on a red sticker for placing on cardboard, and then being cut out.  The front cover and back cover also show  differences compared to the textured digest version.

Has anyone seen one of these?

I just pulled one of these out of a box.  Mine is exactly as you have photographed and described, minus the paperclip part.

LOL  I am no magician, but it is the gospel truth.  Actually a closer look did reveal a paper clip at the bottom of the bag  A light carbon mark on the back page tells me it was located exactly where Jeff's was.  I have no idea whether the bag was original or something the previous owner added.

I have chatted with Boreas and verified a second copy that matches the contents of mine.

Odd.  His Misty was at least one grade better than mine (and maybe two grades) but went for a little less.

Ah. didn't realize -- my copy did have staples though the maps had been removed from them and were loose.

Dunno....but Lofenloc is the first bidder.  Odds are he will also be the last.  Wink   I expect it to go for quite a bit.
