Sadly, that is also not the first time I have seen him do something like that. I don't know if its intentional or not, but he really needs to be more careful if its just a mistake. on the other hand, if its being done intentionally, well then thats just bull sh*t.

I've asked him on some Judges Guild items before to get clarification, and he does at times list printings now for them (but then I've changed some printings since I believe. )ShaneG.

Its one thing to use stock photos of a common items rather than take a picture of every single item that you have for sale, but the lack of responsibility doing it using by using earlier printing books as your stock photos even though they are not coming from someone who should know better, its kind of disappointing.

Good.1. it says Limited Edition on the top of the cover2. it is hardback and not softbackThat is it.Chaosium have done similar recently when they released a hardcover 25th anniversery edition - which was effectively identical to the current sixth edition rule-set. Although in this case the cover was different.http://www.yog-sothoth.com/modules.php? ... le&sid=338Still a nice catch - especially as quality hardcover Call of Cthulhu stuff has been a bit thin on the ground recently.
