D & D "Origins II Expedition to the Barrier Peaks"
For those interested in such ephemera, a copy of the very rare MS that E. Gary Gygax and I wrote for the Origins II convention tournament was sold yesterday on Ebay. I estimate that there are still 2-4 more in existence as one each was handed out to those judging this large tournament, plus EGG and I kept ours (mine was since lost).
Here's the referring link, an ending shot, and some photo samples by the seller.
Gary went on to expand our concepts into TSR's AD&D adventure of the same name. I was thanked for my contributions on the front cover matter.

Yes, I tip my hat to the collector who won this and others from this seller's auctions. There was an Origins I Tomb of Horrors that went for $1526.01 and an original convention Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth that started at $1000-1200.
ReplyDeleteThere was even a small rust monster sketch, drawn & signed by Gary Gygax that went for $147.50.
I know the winners are very happy this morning.
Ciao!

ReplyDeleteYeah. Same seller. I didn't what to overload the OP; as well, the link leads you to those items if so directed.
ReplyDeleteThe rust monster illustration by EGG should have gone for more; oh well. Hopefully his estate never sells his semi-amateur, semi-pro oils he did, one a composite of the Twilight Zone TV series opening, another of the Stone Manor in Lake Geneva from the lake side view. They were both pretty darn good.
Great stuff. :D
