What D&D memorablia do you have?

Reading the 30th anniversary issue of Dragon bought back memories, particularly about all the various D&D products. Think I still have a bunch of the trading cards with the (mostly) lame art. So what D&D memorablia do you have?

A TSR logo dicebag
The 'art of' DL and DnD books
Several old product catalogues from the beginning of 2nd edition time

All the 1st edition books except for the FF1. Most 2nd Edition books except for the DMG (I thought the DMG 1 was much better and have kept playing with that one up until now...)

The original FR boxed set, the spelljammer boxed sets, the first ravenloft boxed set.

A lot of the planescape material and the Illithiad and Isles of Jakandor stuff (last of which was crap btw)

All the players options and DM option stuff at the end of 2nd edition.

A stack of about 80 old dragon mags (from around 125 to about 220 with several missing in between)

I have a seperate bookcase to hold all the stuff. Every now and then I just grab some of the old books to flip through them. Some of them still have that particular smell that the old (1e) books used to have when I bought them...
 


The Dragon figurine from the old 1982 Electronic Dungeons & Dragons Labyrinth Game.

A bunch of action figures (Warduke, Strongheart, the wizard, the assassin, the cleric, the half-ogre, and the Nightmare and Dragonne mounts)

A box full of the large bendy D&D monsters (roper, grell, a bunch of orcs & goblins, men at arms, spectre, lich, etc)
 


I've got the 1st ed. Combat Wheel, available only in Europe. Nabbed while visiting some family there about 20 years ago! Worth a pretty penny too!

While going through some of my childhood books and toys, I found two old AD&D beach towels circa 1985. One has an armored knight riding a blue dragon, and the other has a stylized dungeon map with different monsters and treasure in different rooms. Pretty cool find. I had almost forgotten about them.
 

I just threw out the remnants of the Dungeons & Dragons electronic labyrinth game last year in a house cleaning, but still have one of the character figurines around here somewhere.

I also have the Warduke and ... arg... whatever that elf was... well, I have those action figures. Warduke rocks. I was VERY happy to see his stats in Dungeon.

AND... I have one old box of the D&D candy with the Owlbear monster card printed on the back. I bought two boxes of those a week when they were around.

(and of course, piles of pre 2e books - mostly 1e with some predating that)
 

I've got a shoebox full of the figures-Warduke, Kalek, Titan, Mandoom, Melf, and many more. I've also got a bunch of the hard rubber monster figures-troll, ogre, lich, men at arms, etc.

Many of my old 1e modules have the puffy stickers stuck on the covers of them. Some of the stickers are the same characters as the figures, but some I never saw elsewhere-Foxfingers the thief? :\

A couple of the old early 1980s Mail Order Hobby Shop catalogs with stuff circled on every page that I never got the money to purchase.

3 of the 4 Monster Cards sets.

And somewhere in storage, I've got a couple of the candy boxes. There is probably more stuff that I'm forgetting as well, since a lot of that stuff has been in boxes in my Moms attic for years. Maybe on my next trip to NY I'll see if I can find it.

And my biggest treasure-a folder with the notes from my first campaign when I was 10 years old. "The New Olympus Quest" is written in big letters across the front, and a map of some mountains, a couple rivers, and 2 castles is drawn below the title. It's really not much more than a couple of Basic and 1e adventures strung together and a bunch of old character sheets, but it's all still there. :)
