EDIT: If my geek-o-meter is working correctly then this picture appeared on the character record sheets folder during the Moldvay Basic set time, thus pre-dating Mentzer.
Hmmm.. wrong picture. It might have been in the actual Moldvay Expert set. I will look it up when I get home.

"Not everybody likes the same sort of games.
Everybody ought to play the sort of games they like.
It's not a stupid idea to sometimes try something you're not sure if you like or not.
Just because somebody likes or dislikes something you feel differently about doesn't make them (or you) stupid or a jerk.
Except Julie Andrews. If you dislike Julie Andrews, you're a jerk. And Golden Retriever puppies." --Barsoomcore

This image shows the classic D&D party: a group of evil, sadistic freebooters (regardless of what is written under "alignment" in their character sheets) assaulting a poor, old leper for the XP and his stuff. You can tell by their looks of murderous glee as the leper raises his gnarled hands in supplication, begging for mercy he will not find in the cold, greedy hearts of the PCs.
Love it!
