[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 6944021, member: 6716779"] Here is something I would be prepared to pay a premium for. Today the spine went in my PHB and some pages started to come out. Its early but you can see the crack. This is on top of my MM falling apart but it is in even worse shape. I have 3 copies of the 1E PHB one the 6th printing from 1980 and it is in near new condition and you do not get that crack sound when you open it. The other 2 have the Easley cover but still going strong. Early AD&D books were stitched because that is what Gygax wanted, later ones form the mid 80's used cheap binding (my OA book has pages falling out). The only other book I have that is in a bad way s the 1995 PHB I have for 2E and that saw heavy use by teenagers who grabbed it by the open cover and dragged it, moved through several student flats in the late 90's and spent a decade buried in a basement and it is still usable though. 1E will outlast all the other D&Ds because in the event of a nuclear war the 1E PHB will survive or in the event of an asteroid strike or other extinction level event.
