aside re. > I modeled it after the old non-published 75/76 TSR CRSs. > This sheet was used internally at TSR but never sold commercially. The 1976 sheets were sold to the public by TSR and turn up with Dungeon Hobby Shop price stickers on the backs of pads. Still not sure whether the 1975 sheets were sold likewise albeit those would really need to be listed on a 1975-dated paper receipt (no DHS) to prove the case. That it is "popularly believed" (i.e. Acaeum) all such sheets were "staff only" probably goes some way to explaining their mystique and recent absurdly high prices. Sorry, not so... Anyhow; Would be interested to know whether anyone else has or still uses the 1975/6 single-class sheets sold through AWG and elsewhere. I'm fairly sure that I don't have a complete set of those, unfortunately. The (presumed) 1975 pre-Character Archaic Wee Warriors CRS is probably also a bit too primitive having rechecked that. Will give posting the CA sheets a miss for obvious reasons; and having forked out $$ in the past for admittedly poor copied forgeries of those to be destroyed. Following on from those, getting somewhat into well-known territory - i.e. already posted in original or (good!) clone format - for the more "usable" sheets.

Sorry, not so... harami, thanks for the tibit! I'm curious how many of those pads are now sitting around in boxes with desiccant around them - and if many years from now, when our children and grandchildren are rooting in the "old man's" box, what they'll think when they find these old CRS pads.
