Found these at a garage sale, both very clean:

The Tarot Quest
By Larry Roos
Michicon 10 Tournament
Tri Tac Inc., 1981
In very nice condition

Catapult Run
By Joe Thwaites, Chris Abbott, Ian Hartshorn
Fantasy Factory, 1984
In very nice condition also
Interesting the cover says at the top "A Fantasy Role-Playing Adventure Module for levels 4-7, suitable for use with Advnaced Dungeons and Dragons.tm*"At the bottom though it says "Advanced Dungeons and Dragons is a trademark of TSR. Inc.  Use of this trademark is NOT sanctioned by holder.  Fantasy Factory is an independant entity that is in no way connected with TSR, Inc."  Guess that is what the * is for after the trademark  :D

Any idea of the rarity of these?

Tarot Quest sold within the past year or so, I think.  I probably have the auction saved if no one else remembers/has the details at hand.

Yes, you bought it from me!   :D
But I can't remember what you paid for it either... seems we all have collective amnesia about this item... perhaps we all drew the same Tarot card...
