Is there much value in the box set of Skip's Ro7P stuff vs. the paperback version: are the maps bigger/cooler, cards present like in FtA, etc.??

You mean TSR released a paperback version of the Rod of Seven Parts boxed set (1145)? Like the hardcover they did for the Council of Wyrms box? That's interesting, I haven't seen one yet. Do you own a paperback version? Could you please look up the TSR item number?

My bad Ralf, I was mistakenly thinking of Axe of the Dwarvish Lords (which did have a box set edition, right?).

Axe of the Dwarven Lords was only released as a paperback.

But it's a whopping big paperback....this item and stuff released about the same time (Die Vecna Die comes to mind) had more substance than several box sets of the same time period...

Serious. They released a lot of really cool deluxe adventures there for a while, like the Jakandor stuff, the Axe of Dwarvish lords, etc. That was preety good time to be picking stuff up.
