hey chummer



i have a sword of hope (well actually loads of em):



its "official adventure approved for dungeons and dragons" - yellow box above that to the right with "118 / $3"



inside its (c) 1980.



treasure vault at the back however goes up to 420 unknown gods.



so it looks more like your first option sorta but not the second one and its not AD&D btw



if u want me to scan here then i will

Thanks,

ShaneG.

Al

Well damn..yeah send a scan of both 119 (it seems thats a 2nd print I did not know about.) Oh and your 118's are 2nd prints also.

e-mailed u chummer - if u want them bigger just lemme know.



Al

yeah maybe twice that size



ShaneG.

shane



didnt know if you had this one, so supplying the info while i am looking at it:



#96 treasury of archaic names



i have a 2nd print with the blue cover - it says (c) 1979 on the inside of the cover, but the treasury vault at the back shows the following:



universal: 700 restormel

D&D: 420 unknown gods

AD&D: 750 illhiedrin book

traveller: 720 rogue moon of spinstorme



imo that makes the (c) more like late 80/early 81, not 79.....what do you think?



Al

Those are all 1981s (copies I actually have too)

And it does seem like thats what happened, course when the site is established I'm going to really read through things to put a vast chronological order to everything.



Course I still need to find the dates on Operation Ogre

1st printing: (19??) Product number is integrated in background of cover.

2nd printing: (19??) Product number in yellow square. Ogres pants are White and black.

I'd say 79 and 80, but it being the 1979 Pacificon AD&D official tournament dungeon that had notes on the playing of this tournament published in the Judges Guild Journal 18 could suggest they are possibly both 80.

yeah, that's the one here (1st print, presumed, unless there are any other minor variations).

yeah i think thats the first too, but i know ian has some too, so maybe time for him to pipe in with a few words on this one, especially CSIO too...



Al

Hey Al (or anyone how has this) a question for ya..

I just got my 2nd printing First Fantasy Campaign and it is 96 pages, with some not labeled: first couple and last page (the booty list which goes to 93). The rest are from 1 to 92...Is this how the 1st has its pages labeled?

I'll have a look when i get home as i have a 1st and a 2nd. am at work atm so cant look right now

My 1st print has a much less elaborate (and shorter) booty list on page 93, but no page number. It also has no price on the front cover.

That might not cheer up Al; Judges Guild Questions • Page 9 • Judges Guild •  The Acaeum



thx. What's the highest booty list number on the 1st print FFC and is there anything else to confirm that is the first print?

(For some reason, the 1st, 3rd and 4th have no cover price? )

Well I have the one with the price and its numbered pages go 1 to 92, but it has a booty list after page 92 and a drawing page, copyright page, table of contents page all before page number 1. Booty list is to 93 putting it at Apr 79.

Al's 1st I suspect maybe numbered the same page wise, not have the price, and has a booty list to #39 putting it at 1977 (I'd say june/july but then inside two of mine is the same forward by Bob and dated Aug 9, 1977)

My other copy is numbered 1 to 64 withou any unnumbered pages, with a More Fine products list to #380 putting it at 1980 (Oct-Dec)



So by that information I would say Al's copy is the 1st print and the two I have would be 2nd/3rd or 3rd/4th

I would really like to know if there is one that can be put at 1978, which it sounds like someone has such a copy? (if so I need a scan and what the highest # in the booty list is)
