My step brother got me into gaming when I was a kid. He had lots of books, but until today I didn't realize how many. So I am sitting at a cook-out and my sister-in-law brags about how she dumped his entire RPG book collection into a dumpster! I was peeved. I told my brother I would buy his collection when the time came, but he threw them out. Luckily, I knew where this dumpster was (in his step dad's yard) and drove 45 minutes away to get into it. My wife and I arrive and there is the box, but I couldn't reach it!! So my wife jumps in (maggots to one side and a gross smell) and retrieves the box!!! None of the books had anything on them!
So I get home and quickly lay the books out.......he had classics.
AD&D 1st edition books!
D&D 1st edition books and mods!
Indiana Jones RPG!
Car Wars
Block Busters!
Star Frontier books!
Cyber Space RPG!
Shadowrun books!
Gamma World 1st edition!
Most of the books were in fair condition, but very usable. Talk about an addition to my RPG library. I do have some doubles like Fiend Folio and Unearthed Arcana.
I am really surprised my wife did it......... She'll be at OGC with me. I told her she's a geek hero....lol
