Dungeons and Dragons

Yet another little find amongst my old chums bits and pieces.

A relatively anonymous white box, slightly bigger than A5 sized, about as heavy as a paperback book so I knew it didn't have metal figures in it as I rattled it a bit to shake off the dust and stour.

Dungeons and Dragons it said on the lid. I remember them. I partied down a dungeon or two in my earlier years at the club. I was surprised that Iain had this as we always had used Advanced Heroquest whenever he or I hosted a dungeon adventure.

Never mind, lets have a look inside. The lid said a 3 volume set.

Yes, 3 booklets, all in very good order. Dated 1974 so these are the original set.

And:

Three supplements, all from the same time period and the Reference Sheets.

So this is a very complete set of the original Dungeons and Dragons rules, in very good condition, owners name in ink in a few locations and several notes in pencil here and there.

I can see that these are on offer on sites such as eBay for silly money, £75 a booklet or so. I wonder what they really sell for. I would be open to a sensible offer. All proceeds to Combat Stress.
