I don't think I attended that con, for some reason. *sigh*

muaddib5 wrote in Fun Finds in the Past:A pleasant surprise arrived in the mail today. Picked up an older DMG (wizard logo, yellow-orange flyleaves and endpapers) on the "bay". Turns out, it's a second beta print. I've never had this copy before and you can clearly see where the new endpapers are pasted over the old endpapers. The back cover is a tad detached at the bottom and you can see the staples also. The covers are a bit "textured" like the first print which is interesting.

It is good thing because the rest of it pretty much sucks.And a belated welcome back, old timer!
