... where I was the curator along friend Gianmatteo Tonci, one of the top Italian game collectors. It was hosted, of course, at the Lucca Games convention and it amassed a star stuffed cast of products, all originals  8): Orange B3, ST1, first edition AD&D books, all the Italian D&D products... just name them and they were there (note: it was a D&D exhibit, not an AD&D one, so D&D was the center). I was so proud  :D

Have a look, if you want, here:

Well, I like to add that every piece had an explanatory text to let people know what it was and why it was in the exhibit. No catalog, sadly   :?

Ah... Wonderful exhibit, and so much space to show that! :)

Thanks, y'both, for taking the effort on that and for sharing those pics. Rather wish there had been the slightest interest in anything equivalent over here when asking around a few of the UK (mini)cons...

Cheers,
David.
