That's for players with infravision. Looks like two different colors to them.

Do you think that an elf as a player would ever choose a human character?

I've been trying all my life, but I think the humans are beginning to suspect.

This might be more attractive to our European members:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

4th+ print (prior to the silver anniversary printing). Only one blurry picture included and the SW is suspect, but it looks like it's in pretty good shape. The SW was often loose on these, but this seems excessive, and it appears to be partially opened on the bottom. Might be worth asking for more pictures and details.

Thanks. I've bought it (for the purposes of science). Will be interesting to see what its like.

Good for you! For that price you did well regardless.

This is interesting for the "correspondence" included in the game... it is a letter to TSR with questions... and the answers have been added within the mail! Are you able to identify who wrote them ? (Assuming they come from TSR)

Not sure, but here is where I transcribed a letter I have: Interesting Items Formerly on eBay • Page 101 • Collecting General • The Acaeum

I wax watching this one. The printed writing in pencil looks like Gary’s or Rob’s writing to my eye, based on similar patterns on Castle Greyhawk map pages and keys.

Hopefully a nice pickup for one of our members

Ciao Allan, thanks for your feedback! I honestly believed that TSR used a letter of reply to the ones sent by the players/masters... or, at least, a answer to a letter could have been written by someone within the text of the letter for internal use (and then a typed letter would have been sent out as a reply!)...
The only exception i figure out is when it was the early years (say 74-75) when the work was not yet fully organized...

This is interesting for the pictures of the contents... from what i can see there is way much more room dedicated to artworks compared to the original version... i love in the 8th pic the picture of the gnome... that makes me miss snow white...

PS the seller has also the BECMI sets!

Gnomes don't get enough credit as fierce warriors whose conquests spanned continents, but the Subcontinent still uses the Saka Year calendar in memory of the terror caused the last time the gnomes paid a visit. Tolkien spoiled everything when he changed their name to Noldor.

Looks like the seller has relisted the Daystar West Rahasia:

Not many of these have come up in recent times. Should be an interesting auction.
