And DL2 arrived today in the SW as well. I bought this from Amazon, same dealer (San Diego Goodwill) for 5 dollars+shipping. I haven't seen SW copies on Ebay in ages, how much are they going for now?

It must have been, but usually it says that the auciton ended with a BIN...or I thought they usually do.
What a complete steal!

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

As of right now there are 65. Ebay keeps counting even after the auction is over. There were only 12 views when I saw it yesterday.

Well this fun find is not that impressive after seeing the last item posted on the previous page but...
This item arrived at my doorstep just this afternoon.

Dungeon Masters Kit #2 - The Dwarven Glory
A Wee Warriors Production
Dwarven Caverns
Copyright 1976

This is THE map index for the map inside the adventure book which was apparently sold seperately.
It is not in like new condition and a previous owner made notes on the pages inside and on the front cover too (Telling us where to find the map itself).
Until I saw this on E-Bay I did not even know it existed and so this is the ONLY copy I have ever seen of the Dwarven Glory Map Index Booklet.

Welll, I am very pleased to have it even if it aint as special as a $22 BIN for a RPGA-1 in Shrink Wrap...

Now if only I could get a copy of The Dwarven Glory with the map inside... :roll:

Is that the one with the 17 numbered pages detailing encounters for the dwarven glory mapsheets? Looks similar to the one I recently purchased but without the handwritten Dwarf Carvens. From what I've been told there are about 7 known copies with the room key and is rarer then the TSR distributed version.

I have one of these as well, 7 copies sounds about right. It is the rarest of the Dwarven Glory printings

Do you know if it the same one as Gnat's as I also hear there may be a third 8 1/2 sized printing but with a large map? I'm kinda wondering if that is what Gnat's booklet relates?

Has anyone been keeping count on the 1st prints?

Not in perfect condition, but I don't recall the last 1st print Greyhawk Folio I saw come by, and that seemed a good price.
