Howdy All,


There were no new listings last night because I got hit with a thermonuclear migraine at 6:30 last night. I tried to work though it but that only made it worse - that took it to the dry heaves stage. Ugh! I had to sleep until 10:00 PM before the migraine passed.

I will make the last listing on Saturday for scheduling purposes.

Sorry again all for leaving you hanging.


Futures Bright,

Paul

My sympathies, Paul.  I get them on occasion as well.

I seem to be the only one who can't see the photos of some of the City of Brass items. Maybe the UK eBay site can't like to the US database.

Could someone please post their impressions of the photos, and whether there looks to be any maps included with them?

Paul,

Could you let us know if there are any known missing portions of the manuscripts, or are they believed to be complete?


This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Welcome to NEONRAMP.COM i.e. Image (anyone else see anything other than a red cross?)

But I'm still happy to bid on it for now :oops:

No sir, no free previews! I knew you would look John! Well I didn't want you to see the TSR sticker label that is coming up! I hate dealing with those pesky BIN offers. I know how you love TSR sticker labels! :-)

Howdy All,


I fixed some of the pictures. Lots 80, 81, 88, and 95. Don't know what is going on with them. Let me know if you can see them in the listings now.

Howdy All,


The DragonCon 87 To the City of Brass has a map included. It is a complete module.

The other manuscripts are just that, manuscripts, they do not have maps.

To get the maps you need to bid on the lots with maps correponding to the company Rob was working with at the time.

Thus, the Kenzer 1st draft ( LOT 86 ),
Kenzer edit draft ( LOT 87 ),
and Rob's unpublished City of Brass draft ( LOT 88 ),
all belong to the Kenzer City of Brass Maps Notes ( LOT 85 )

I seperated them because it gave equal value to all the other drafts and the single lot of maps a value of their own. Seemed to be the most equitable.

They seem to be working now, let me know.

Well, they are draft manuscripts. They are completed to the point they were at in the creation process.

The Necromancer stuff is very primordial, the City of Brass was to be a 4 module series and is much different than the others.

The Pied Piper Stuff is getting along but still an outline with a bunch of cool maps and some sketches.

The Kenzer 1st draft is the first portion of the manuscript turned in. Very rough but with a lot of extraneous material.

The Kenzer edited draft came shortly after that and is more compact and organized.

Then Rob's unpublished version came after that, adding some 49,000 words to all previous versions.

etc.

Just my opinion, of course, but this one seems to be the gem of the collection (thus far!).  Too often we forget the true meanings of words like "rare" and "vintage".  (And provenance!  See, I'm learning here...) Also unfortunate that I don't have the $$$.  :cry:

Howdy,


OK fixed. I had the .jpg listed as RKJ162... not RJK162 as it should have been! So many details! Please continue to point out any mistakes or missing photos. Thanks!
