Fantastic Gygax photo from 1985 posted to the Gary Con FB group byGabriel Meister.




Fantastic Gygax photo from 1985 posted to the Gary Con FB group by Gabriel Meister. I don't think I've seen this one before. Apparently from a newspaper, I'm waiting for more info from Gabriel. Love the MMII on the desk; "I just wrote the MMII, what have you done lately?"

Scott Mob always likes a good Gygax photo.

  7. ...and:

    The skull mug
    Whatever's on that paper beneath the MMII
    That little (dragon?) drawing over on the left-hand side of the desk
    The framed horse portrait(!)

    I wanna Bladerunner this thing...

  8. I just wish he'd written more. His is the best AD&D work. His novels are fantastic sourcebooks. He is gaming in Valhalla now.

  9. Howard Hessman looked like Gygax! ;) I can tell, even from this small resolution that that is a pack of Camel non-filtered cigarettes. I know because I used to smoke 2 packs a day in my Navy days. :/
    I'd love to know what those little gadgets are on the left side of the desk. I can make out a pair of d6's, and something that may be a miniature catapult or other siege engine, stapler, pencils, errr, a desktop barometer??
