I rarely post here, mainly because I rarely complete lists!

I did finally get the last piece of the RPGA puzzle (Rahasia), so RPGA1-8 done!

That's a beautiful story!

Where are the pics?  Post some pretty pictures please :)


I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.

Shoulda been: ".. from Pangreenia to Floratopolis, from mystical Treeonia of spectral Forests to Schruborial dimensions." - The Forests of Leng

Nice just completed those myself last month with getting RPGA 2.  Photo of 1-4 is higher up in this thread. (5-8 are hard to photograph since they are still bound into the Polyhedrons.)

I probably snagged the one you were watching, sorry bud.

After 15 years of on and off collecting, I'm down to 1 book on my primary list.  :-)    I haven't totaled the number on the secondary lists though.  lol

Hey all,

So while technically there are still a small # of books missing, I can for the most part say my Dungeons and Dragons collection is complete.

This is Original Dungeons and Dragons,  Dungeons and Dragons through 1993, and Advanced Dungeons and Dragons 1st edition (also includes the few items that were 1st content in a 2nd branded cover, or have the gold star claming both systems compatible).

Not ever seen a photo of the entire set of books before, so thought it would be fun to try.  Sadly the camera did not focus well, so bit blurry, might try again another weekend if I can find the time and use a better camera.

A few items that did not fit into the photos as well, have a photo of them, but cannot post more than 3 attachments.

Missing items are Jade Hare, Orange B3, ST1, early limited print tournament modules and the remaining non-tsr games and a woody box for ODD.

(I am in market for those missing items, if anyone is seeking to part with one :).....thought probably only get one every few months at best.  Decent condition, but not looking for perfect, or SW copies.)

Great collection, thanks for posting :)

WyvernLord, well done sir!  Nice layout and nice looking collection.  

I can appreciate the time it took to lay them out in such an organized way, thanks for sharing!

I was originally planning to have the relevant games below the boxes, but had so much stuff I had to put other stuff in the column as well.  Need a bigger space to lay it out...this is on a queen size bed.

Thanks.  It was a bit of a challenge.  Between trying to fit it all on, keeping it from sliding off, keeping the cats off the bed (just shut the door eventually) and my lower back telling me where to go.  Just wish the camera would have worked better.  I will give it another try someday, Like to get a good photo of it and then make a poster of it. :)

Thanks.

:) I am happy with just one copy of each.  I only collect different prints if very something significant changed (Cover, book content or if I just happen across one for cheap.)  I have other prints of many, but those will eventually be sold off to clear out room for new stuff.  I try to keep the earliest print I can, but also paying attention to condition, so in some cases I keep a later print as the early one is just too beat up.  I have 3 prints of the ODD white box, and still trying to decide which to keep (well, the 6th print will get sold, but the 4th and 5th are the ones I have to decide between...and are the two in the photo).

It is like Christmas, except for all the work.
Here's an old pic from another thread:
