beyondthebreach wrote:Someone once suggested to me that part of its value lies in the fact that it is the rarest "professionally produced" TSR module. That is, a module that looks like a typical TSR module with a Letter system (ST1), cover and game book.That is probably true. Not nearly as rare as a Jade Hare w/Cover, however . . . (though far rarer than a coverless Jade Hare).

Cover- corners slightly creased, some white at top and bottom of spine. Contents- completely pristine. I recall reading it but it was never played and I don't think it's been opened since I read it, which was probably on the way home from the Garden Festival.Pictures will follow, hopefully later this evening.CheersLouise
