You have already created an entry for Bob Liddil. Shouldn't this section (Pandora's Treasures) be merged with Liddil section?

That was my first impulse, but the items were produced/printed by Pandora's Treasures. He wrote them, but they, apparently, distributed/produced them. What changed my mind was the 30 Sided Adventure under Armory, also by Bob Liddil. In their credits it describes B.L. as writing the material for them. I almost put it under Bob Liddil, but they produced/distributed it, and since that's the principle of organization here, it goes there.

Oddly enough, Apothecary (under Bob Liddil) thanks Pandora's Treasures for their help, but their label does not appear as it does in the other two.

Time will tell us where it belongs. If you want to, I can list them under both, like Character Archaic. The 30 Sided Adventure should go there too, after all, it has the same exact product list in the back as Apothecary.

Pandora's Treasures was a partnership between myself and this incredible talented RPG Goddess, Dallas Neillsen, who invented the (somewhat famous) Dice Wheel. It was a union of opportunity and love (of role-playing), though we lived on opposite sides of the country.

Rascals, Rogues, Rapscallions and Renegades was produced specifically for the Dice Wheel, to answer the question, "now that I have it, what does it do?" That book was introduced at a "Bulldog" Comic Con in Dallas Texas and took off with the dice wheel.

Thus, Pandora's treasures launched.

The Armory books, came later, as did the Poisons and Potions books.

The chronology goes (if I remember right):

1976 Dimensions and Doors
1976 Demons and Notmen
1977 Castles and Kingdoms
1978 Certificates of Survival, Birth, Death, Slavery, Manumission

All under the Rider Fantasy Creations label

not sure of the years on the rest but:

issues 18-35 of Sorcerer's Apprentice (as a fanzine)

Rascals Rogues, Rapscallions and Renegades
Fragments of a Bard's Journey (poetry book 30 produced)
Little Shop of Poisons and Potions
30 sided character and other Tales (for the Armory)
MasterScribe's Kit (for the Armory)
Dungeon Adventure Cards (for the Armory and killed by Magic, The Gathering).

Apothecary on the Street of Dreams
30 sided Adventure and other Tales

30 sided fantasy (sold only in the Southeast) as a preproduction book

Griswald Grimm's Bones of Power (for GameScience) Lou Zocchi

Nothing since then ( I don't think)

Hope I didn't miss anything

When I was young....

Well, it appears that I have screwed the chronology up. Trusting memory at my age is a bit of a risk :) Wink

Hi Bob, its great to see you here. Your arrival has prompted me to add some more of your items including your book of poetry. I asked about this over on the Acaeum a while back and I think you said there were 50 of them printed - I have #39.

Also, if you have an extra box for Pandora's Dice Wheel, let me know.

I haven't found one yet but I wonder if there is a Pandora's Treasures version of the MasterScribes Kit?

Hey Mars... I don't exactly know what I'm going to do with it yet, but I have a broken dice wheel that's sheared off at the contact point between its base and the wheel. This also leaves with me a clean box (the plain white one with a Pandora's sticker) and the original instructions, etc. (The laugher is that when I got the box it was in shrink.)

You might have satisfied your box need already (no pun intended), but otherwise perhaps we can work something out.
