    There are some cool insights in that booklet to the development of OD&D and AD&D. I can't imagine paying hundreds of dollars for a copy, though!

    Wow! We should all chip in and then scan the bejeesus out of it. Post it online as a PDF and make our money back.

    I know I've seen it for far less on eBay before. But yeah, a pdf would be most welcome.

    They're generally selling in the $350-$500 range the past several that have come up. A year to 18 months ago they were selling for $120-$200.

    I second dubeers' comment! Also, jarl, someone should make up an adventure on the scans from that ebay page. It's like some sort of DM challenge:

    "Here are two monsters and some flavor text from different modules--make it work!"

    Wow, $600+...someone needs to put the crackpipe DOWN. I would have balked but inderstood a hundred, maybe two. Screamed about $300. This is just raping it for all it's worth.
