A customer perusing a shelf with a lot of Avalon Hill/Victory Games products (I have recognized in his hands James Bond RPG, Lords of Creation RPG and there is a third game I can't see)

And a young customer perusing the spinning racks: I recognized on the racks Verbosh from Judges Gulld, the Fantasy Encounters accessory, a lot of AD&D and Classic D&D modules, Dragon magazine and something more...

I apologize for the poor quality of the photos, but in the magazine they were really small and I scanned them at maximum DPI.
