If it is it might be quite interesting to see who the previous owner is being that it seems that the T-1sts seem to only come from those in the industry at the time.

I will post the name and address here when I get it. In trying to make it out from the picture it might be a WI address but can't tell.

Though to keep it is the AD&D vein should we not sue the Ravenloft term. I know it was Adam Awakens or something like that. Were contructs covered in The Created?

Got this today so they shipped almost immediatley. First there is no page that appears to have been written on (middle right photo) as shown in one of the photos. Not sure what I am seeing in that one photo. It does appear to be a T-1st . The cover exhibits the wear associated with a PHB of that era if it was used. It has the blemish near the upper left. The pages inside are unmarked though the edges are starting to yellow some. The name in the cover and on the title page is Glenn Grotefeld. It is a name I do not recognize from the gaming industry. Does anyone here remember that name or know this person? I Googled it and there is someone in Arlington, IL with that name and the address is the book is Wheeling, IL so it might be the same person.

Chances are he hasn't thought about AD&D since 1979, but it would be interesting if you contacted him. 'Course...he might also want his stolen 1st print PHB back, too! Mark
