So with the recent focus on maps in the
JG subweb I thought now might be a good time to ask for some speculation on what the following set might snag in an open auction.
Bill Owen's personal map copies of the Wilderlands as listed here at the very top:

These were purchased just as everyone was starting to clue in that Bill Owen was unloading reams of stuff on Ebay. I've always wondered if I got these cheap or if they would fetch more now that they are listed on Acaeum as a unique and because of their connection to Bill. Bill has also stated that he snagged these maps as they came of the press ...I assume most of these are first prints though I have not actually confirmed that through inspection. They are also laminated to throw a spanner into the valuation. A few Judges maps also have the coastlines carefully outlined by Bill in blue highlight, though in most cases there is also a separate clean map as well.
Thanks!
Who says my inspiration was D&D? That was just a background phenomenon.
