As it turns out, there were 5 other prints in there as well, and I'm not sure what they are. They arent the Dark Sun prints. Artwork is naive, black and white, Dungeons & Dragons 1991 TSR copyright. No part number. Seems to represent a wide range of subjects. I will try and get a pic when I can. Any one give me any clues please?

I have a set with a couple of them being color prints. Mine came in a large white envelope with Al-Qadim campaign at one corner.

There were doubles of 2 of the Al-Qadim b&w prints, plus these 5 as detailed above. I dont know what they are.

Images here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/malcolmlawrenson/2799253593/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/malcolmlawrenson/2799253261/ They are really poor artwork imho - the al-qadim ones are much better.

I contacted Stephen Fabian, and yes, they are all his. However, he never published them in a portfolio format like that, so they are almost definitely TSRs work.
