Found these two old D&D books, printed in 1987 from what I can gather. I didn't play that far back but I did start a few years after. I don't think they have any value but I think they are pretty cool. These are the only two books I have but I also have the Dragon mountain adventure but I believe I'm missing parts of it.
I remember playing with one of my friends and having no clue what we were doing. It was just the two of us and all I wanted to do was build a base for myself. I didn't care about grand adventure or gaining fame, I just wanted a cool base. I guess everyone approaches the game differently.
