Hmmm... I guess my claims to fame are based on three things: the big Gary Gygax interview (damn, I still feel pain inside thinking about Gary's death

), being the curator of the big Lucca Comics & Games exhibit celebrating the 30 years of D&D with friend Gianmatteo Tonci and having written and published Mondi Eroici, a book listing and describing alla
RPGs printed in Italian (I published the interview to Gary in Italian at last inside my book). Believe me, the exhibit was very well done (ahem

), not a series of cardboard stand
ups but all original products, INCLUDING first edition and first print AD&D books, the orange
B3, the
ST1 module, the AD&D record album, the Dungeon Master book by William Dear (well, it was a nice curiosity... no, not the pitchforks again

)... Me and Gianmatteo were very, very proud! A pity that the convention management handled somewhat harshly our toys

and never offered any refunds - just some half hearthed apologies

Oh, well, it was really AWESOME seeing my name associated with this greatest of games and seeing people's oooohs and aaaahs in front of the showcase.
