Ok, this is in reference to this auction:




** expired/removed eBay auction **






I received the items today, I have now destroyed the "provenance" page so it's just 6 sheets of paper now.



It IS this file:

Now, the auction also came with another lot sold by Paul Stormberg titled:



D&D Rules Set for Midgard Play-by-Mail Game



It is a booklet 8½ x 11 in size with 22 sheets of paper in it that are typed on one or both sides (mostly both sides). The front of the booklet is a heavy yellow "paper" not as thick as poster board but heavier than construction paper. The back of the booklet is brown cardboard about as think as or a tad thicker than today's backing boards. There is also a single sheet of whiter paper written in pencil front and back describing specifics about a "kingdom" or such info.



These are all stapled together along the left edge with 4 staples. The top staple is missing, and the back cover, hand written page and last page of the book are lose from the staples.



There is also an "external" ruled notebook page written in pencil with some specific instructions to the "next" player, with an address of where to send the "orders" page etc ie: to the next player in the "chain".



I will get some pics here if I can figure how to post them, or I'll create a link to them



Okay, try this:

Here is the original auction description for Lot 25:

"The Collector's Trove has a D&D Rules Set for Midgard Play by Mail from the mid 1970's for auction! The bound rules set is in VG condition. The staples have come loose (one is missing) from the back, cardstock binding. Two pages of handwritten notes have been placed within the back of the 8.5" x 11" book. The book is about 40 pp."

"Midgard is a Play by Mail game by Tom Drake, printed in 1972. After the publication of D&D, and it's wild popularity, it was decided to adapt the PBM campaign setting to the D&D rules. Nice little collectible of a classic PBM. Detail of spells, characters, weapons, classes, etc. Everything you'd need to run a D&D/Midgard campaign. Very cool."

Oh, I have the original auction photo archived as well if you are curious. Looks and sounds to be in the exact same condition.


Futures Bright,

Paul
