bclarkie wrote:Dear Seller, I was wondering about this item that you have for sale. First off you state that this item was used as inspiriation for the creation of the Dungeons & Dragons Role Playing Game by E. Gary Gygax. Where did you come about this item being that TSR was located in Lake Geneva Wisconson and do you have some sort of letter of authenticy that that states this information or can officially substantiate this in any way. Secondly, you state that this piece has a value of over $50,000.00, did you have this item officially appraised and if so do you have a copy of the appaisal that I might be able to see or if not where did you come to gather that the value of this item would be that much. Thanks for your time, Brian
