Your First Books

Postby Cazmonster » Sun Apr 29, 2018 1:35 pm

I was at my Mom’s this weekend, emptying out stuff Barb and I had stored in her attic. One of the tubs had my full se of AD&D books from High School. I haven’t gotten to page through them yet, but I was super excited to see them again.

What was your first set and when did you last see it?

Had the red box basic D&D set first. Haven’t seen that one since I got rid of it in the early 90s, I think. First hardcover was 1st edition AD&D player’s guide, which is on the bookcase in my home office with all my other RPG books. Haven’t paged through it in years!

I started with the first (Holmes) basic set (had an archer and a wizard attacking a dragon on the front cover).

My first hardback as the Monster Manual.

Basic D&D was a trip. I love the Erol Otus cover.
