*slipping into jonb mode* Its a super-duper-amazingly-ultra-rare pre-issue of the B3 module that they decided to release to see how interested the public would be in it. they later added an outer cover, but you mustnt miss this incredible offer.....jeez there must only be a handful out there in this condition....an offer not to miss!  8)


Are we nearly there yet?

Good one!   :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

And the full description should read:

Dungeon Module B3 Palace of the Silver Princess (This book has a white paper cover)...because I printed it out myself...

aside to the previous: Just noticed the dates on the last page of the Rob Kuntz Greyhawk contract auction are 7th April 1975.

What's the precise context there in relation to the printing history, Paul?
(i.e. the first piece of paper appears to relate to copyright registration rather than contract(?), but not clear what the third is...).

thx. :)

Erm, Jim asked my advice for selling a few days ago, but kinda implied "no rush".
When I saw the listing here I was writing back a PM to comment about possibly being bad timing going against Rob Kuntz, multiple oB3s, etc., and only /then/ did I look at the auction.

And saw the BIN..... 8O

Hrmm... given that I've been kicked in the teeth several times recently, I could hardly turn that down (and there was also the matter of an eBay.co.uk voucher to take $36 off the price).

Was a good price to pitch that at, IMHO.
Thank you, Jim! :D

(And apologies to you, Brian, and anyone else with fingers hovering over the button...).

Complimenti!!!

David, seriously, if it becomes a problem you can have it shipped it to me and I will be willing to forward it to you. :) Let me know.

You could just bid on it and find out yourself...  :twisted:

Oh, all right. It is a copyright claim for Supp. I Greyhawk. The date of publication is listed as January 15, 1975 in an earlier page of the document.

Paul

Looks like it also includes the rare "white banner" version of the PHB.

Printing anomaly or confused seller?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 5201743147

You asked:
"hi the_advocate, States third printing on copyright page? thanks, ifearyeti"

That's right.
