I'm terrible at remember details, here's what I recall,
The three versions are here:

right - original, note how tight the lettering ink is and the artwork is pretty faint
center - signed, numbered of x/95, this is the copy I received from the Acaeum pre-sales. I see now despite being around 9th on the list, I received a number in the 30s
left - I bought this from the Pacesetter booth direct from Bill at GenCon. The numbering is x/95. Mine was in the 80s, either he sold a ton at the booth (unlikely at $35?), or was selling them before GC2013, or who knows wasn't selling them in order

You can see artifacts from scanning/printing the two reprints and there are the same pattern. So i would guess he printed 200 or so and sent half of them to the author to sign.
I saw some ebay sales, one or two I think of the signed Acaeum version before I listed mine and they went over $100
IIRC, hence my asking price for the non-signed. I can't see any significance for numbering the non-signed version, aside from Bill as doing that on all his modules from that time- running off a hundred or so and just putting a number on them. Upon reflection, I do find it tough to believe he sold 90 of them at $35.
If Bill sees this, maybe chime in with any details, I'd be curious too if there was more info as to where they all went and how they were distributed.
I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.
