Dragon Magazine #72 April 1983, Fantasy Role-Playing Game Materials Mostly for Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st Edition, Good Condition/Incomplete

Item Details

This listing is for a vintage copy of Dragon Magazine #72 published in April 1983 by TSR.

Dragon Magazine was the premier magazine for role-playing games. It ceased print publication in 2007 but lives on in a digital format. I always looked forward to getting Dragon Magazine in the mail or at my local hobby shop. It was always packed full of fun stuff to expand your Dungeons and Dragons game. Sometimes it even had information on other TSR games and occasional articles on other companies' games. It also had short stories, comics, and reviews.

In the early days, some of the luminaries of the game, like Gary Gygax, would contribute an article or two. A good time was always had by all!

Condition

This magazine is in Good condition but it is not complete. It is missing the File 13 game by Tom Wham. Somebody played it! The cover is in Good condition. The cover is split at the top and bottom and has been taped. There are a few discolored spots. It shows heavy corner rounding, scuffing, edge wear, and creasing. The interior shows heavy corner rounding, edgewear, and the page edges are grey from use. 

Please note, that I have only graded the magazine for any major flaws. If you are concerned about the specific condition or want to make sure it has a specific article or module, please contact me and I will go over the magazine with a fine-tooth comb!

Please Note:

Please look at the pictures and contact me if you have any questions.

Most of my packing supplies are reused, so don't be too surprised if you have a combination of paper, airbags, and whatever else I have laying around.

I would be happy to wrap your gift purchase at no charge and write a personal note on the packing slip. Just add a note to the shopping cart at check-out.
