Hi Kynan, I have added this item on the item page. I am almost sure it is a 2nd printing, because it has a red product number in the upper right corner. Could you do me a favor please and read the printing information again. Does it really state "1st printing" inside?

I have 2 copies of this with the red 2163 in the top right of the cover and both state first printing inside.

It says "First Printing, May 1996." That what is says, but knowing TSR it could actually be different. What do you have?

Ralf,

What advertisements does the white lettered one have on the inside cover/flyleaf?

Got a soft cover for this as well...states 1st printing May 1996 on pg 2, TSR addy on 1st page (no flyleaves at all for this or Skills & Powers) Back cover though has WotC addys and (c) 1997 and $22.95 price. Looks like 1st printing hardcover by the way.

I made a mistake. My hardcover is identical with Kynan's. I have corrected the item page. The one with the white product number was the softcover.

I think now everything should be cleared up.

Sorry for confusing all of you!
