What's the oldest RPG Product you own?

* Oldest in terms of my first product was the D&D Basic Set with the Erol Otus painting on the cover (Purple Box?)
* Oldest in terms of actual age of the product is a white box of the original three D&D brown books although "Men and Magic" is missing but someone added a copy of the silver-booket "Chainmail" to replace it.

1st ed. AD&D Player's Handbook, 5th printing, October 1979. I think I just pinpointed when I started playing.

I'm just waiting for Col Playdoh to show up...
"My earliest RPG product is a small note i scribbled back in 74 (or was it 73 i can't remember) 'Note to self: an elven army would kick butt.' At least it was something like that... its hard to write sometimes between all the camels."

Well, most of my old D&D stuff has gone down that black abyss where a lot of my old stuff went; I still have the GDQ supermodule. I recently bought a used copy of the Basic D&D Rulebook by Tom Moldvay (Red cover, Otis drawing), which is probably my oldest product currently.

I haven't got a clue what I bought that was new, yet old school, but the oldest rpg stuff I have are the old hardbound player's handbook, which I also picked up, strangely enough, at Whyte Knight (small world).
I probably have a set that might be older. I know I have a red box of basic D&D stashed away somewhere as well.

My gamer friends, oh how they love to point and laugh
I ritualistically purge myself of older possessions from time to time. This presents my somewhat-baffled gamer buds with an opportunity to smirk, shake their heads, and snicker whenever I announce my intent to... RENEW.
So, yeah, I plan on sellin' all my crufty, ancient, "TOO [OLD] FOR TV" RPG stuff at a convention next week. Look on, ye mighty, and despair!

Given the 3.5 content confirmation re: Savage Species I think that'll be my first purchase at the convention.
RENEW!
