TSR NuTSR Sells Rebound 1E Core Rulebooks For $650 Each

Despite being embroiled in ongoing legal disputes with WotC regarding use of the TSR trademark (amongst other things), NuTSR has posted images of leather-bound compilations of AD&D 1E books they say are rebindings of old material, complete with the disputed logo. They're selling these books for $650 each.

The Deities & Demigods book (middle top in the image) has a typo on the front cover.

About these books, NuTSR says "Look what just came in. Sorry, we didn't have these in for TSR CON. (in the beginning, WotC said similar to what people below are saying. We said they are rebound of old material. Long story short, WotC said ok no problem, we have it in writing)"

As rebindings, these would be existing books simply being resold. However, the covers with the disputed logo are new.

In early March WotC launched a lawsuit -- (PDF attachment of filing) -- naming TSR, TSR CEO Justin LaNasa personally, and the Dungeon Hobby Shop museum. WotC seeks a judgement that TSR hand over all domains, take down all websites, pay treble damages and costs, hand over all stock and proceeds related to the trademarks, and more.

Isn't that a conjugation?

[Runs for cover]
Well, it's the noun that's changing and not the verb, but it's changing to conform with the number marking on V rather than the place the noun occupies in V's theta grid, but to be excruciatingly correct it's not irregularity at all but suppletion, but actually ... I should probably stop now.

While the misspellings are inexcusable, the missing apostrophes in the titles are accurate. The titles of the 1st Edition Handbooks were "Players Handbook" and "Dungeon Masters Guide" and not "Player's Handbook" and "Dungeon Master's Guide". Even the official 2012 WotC premium reprints of the 1st Edition books honored TSR's original apostropheless titles.
There is a legitimate grammatical error on two of them (or inconsistent stylistic decisions; really either is likely with this crew :rolleyes: ). When listing the individual titles contained, there is no comma separating the second and third title in the DMG and Monster compilations, but there is in the Player compilation.
 



So, off the main topic. Do you keep your books in anything to help preserve them, or just on the shelf? (The paper and cover in my DMG is starting to show its age, and we have an unfortunate number of silverfish in other parts of the house that periodically make it to the bookshelf...)
Wait, silverfish are a book hazard?!

Because being completely revolting little cosmic horrors isn't bad enough?!!!??

Nope, just sitting on the shelf along with all their brethren and sistren. :)

Except the UA; which sits in my "active" box along with a PH, DMG, all three MMs, and my DM binder and map folder. This box gets dug into several times a session and at various other times during the week, so the UA isn't exactly treated wihthkid gloves.
