I purchased Tabletop Warriors from Nan's in 1986, where it was kept on the same rack as the OD&D stock. I don't remember why I bought it in the first place, but it's old-school qualities definitely led me to look for more of the same. When I acquired a white box the next year, Tabletop Warriors went right into it. All in all it's a great book - either the last of the true old school, or the first of the retro-clones. My copy has a $9.00 Nan's price sticker, discoloration on the spine similar to the other existing copies, & a card stapled to the back cover (which I didn't see mentioned on this thread).
