[QUOTE="Echohawk, post: 9518761, member: 9849"] I love this thread, but I'm not sure I can pick out just one prized D&D possession. I've been collecting D&D stuff for quite a while now, so I'm lucky enough to have a copy of every English-language* D&D RPG book** sold in game stores*** over the last five decades. (Yes, storage is an issue.) A few favorites from my collection: [LIST] [*][B]Dungeon Masters Guide (1e)[/B]:[B] [/B]This was the very first D&D book I ever bought, so it holds a lot of sentimental value. [*][B]The Jade Hare[/B]: This is a forgettable product, but it is rare (and hence valuable) and only eight pages. That means it is currently worth 70% of the price of gold per gram, which I find amusing. [*][B]Dragon #1[/B]: Collecting full sets of Dragon, Dungeon, Polyhedron and Imagine magazines was challenging. There were some issues that were incredibly tricky to get without paying excessive amounts (and some for which I sadly did end up paying excessive amounts). If I had to pick one item to represent all the periodicals it would be the first issue of Dragon. In case you are wondering, Dragon #1 is worth roughly 25% of the price of gold per gram. [*][B]Miniature reprints[/B]: Collecting these tiny reprints (from around 1999/2000) certainly put my internet search skills to the test. I note that the words "miniature" and "dungeons & dragons" are not useful search terms when scouring eBay. [*]A [B]D&D chair[/B]: Sometime this century, branded D&D folding chairs were distributed to FLGS participating in a promotion. I ended up with one of these, and I have to confess that it has not been treated as a collectable, but as a really useful piece of furniture that sees constant use and is now looking quite battered. But I love my D&D chair. [/LIST] I'm sure that an even-more-favorite favorite will spring to mind the second I post this, but those are a few items that immediately sprang to mind. [SIZE=3]* I have made no attempt to collect non-English D&D products. Not even those rare Hebrew and Japanese products that don't have English equivalents. ** I don't collect D&D novels, although I do still have quite a lot of those. *** I definitely do not have a copy of everything ever printed for D&D. There have been so many RPGA and other organised play adventures, convention modules, FLGS give-aways and obscure promotions that I'm confident that nobody does.
