So I have this copy of Pantheon! but I can't determine what printing. This one is copyright 1986. Digest Size.

RPGGeek and TOT both have two different examples on their sites. The one from 1986 is different from this one

I'm assuming it's a 1st Ed., 1st Print? I know Nalle had multiple printings, releases, what have you of products...Zip, Boxed, so on

The one in your picture actually looks like a fake. You can see the photocopied staple marks right on the cover. I know these were not high quality productions but I don't think any of my Ragnarok Ent stuff has photocopied staple holes.

Thanks for the reply

Do you have a copy of this cover? Does anyone else on here have a copy with this cover? I couldn't find anything online about it.

Would photocopied staple holes be transferred to the interior pages as well?

I have a copy of this print - no photocopy staple holes. The easiest interior page to check for photocopied staples is the middle pages with "Gods of Roman Gaul".

I seem to remember there was an ebay seller "dndplayer" that was selling fakes of a number of small press supplements like Dungeon of Dr Demento, and some others - this might have been one of them. Also, there was a more recent one who was selling photocopies of the Hess Games and Sage Lore books.

This digest sized printing is the first printing. There is also ragnarok #3006, which is 8.5"x11" from 1991. It is the 2nd print.

Bought this back in October 2018 from wasjean358 I think

I'll have to check the pages you recommended when I get home Wednesday.

Honestly looking at your copy and mine it's definitely a copied cover.

thanks for the pics and the information

It doesn't look like wasjean358 is a valid seller ID anymore.

Not sure if they are "no longer registered on ebay" or if they simply changed their ID.

my apologies, wasjean658 was the user. They had been on here seeking appraisals for 1st ed T&T and some other items.

I think I'll just put this item back in the box and consider it having at least a reproduced cover.

thanks for the help
