Tszii wrote in Tombs of Horrors:Is it possible to tell the difference between a 2nd/3rd print Tomb of Horrors and the one printed in Return to the Tomb of Horrors? The information here says they are identical, and I am certain that is correct, but what would you look for in the cover to tell the difference? Opening the module looking at the insert doesn't count.
grodog wrote in Tombs of Horrors:Looking at the pictures more closely, I see a few additional potential differences:- the ISBN number on the original (shrink, right) appears to be closer to the bottom edge of the page (as do the product code and "Printed in the USA")- the italic font used in the cover description blurb below the artwork appears to be a little heavier in weight/thickness than the reprint- the reds in the reprint in front appear to be deeper when compared to the original (which looks more orangey), while the reverse is true on the back covers---the pink is lighter on the reprint when compared to the originalJeff: what do you think, do things look that way to your in-person eyes, or is this a possible trick of the camera, lighting, etc.?Allan.

FoulFoot wrote in How do you tell a 2nd print S1 from a 7th?:The possibility of a "faked" 2nd print S1 will be very low. There's no point in it. Even a shrinked 1st print S1 is not worth much at all.
