core rulebook, GM screen and a cloth print of the 1770 Ratzer map of NYC. The map is one of my favorite objects in the world - I often go visit the original copy at the Brooklyn Historical Society (one of three in existence).

Began the day with an 11am viewing of Lord of the Rings (1978) at Nitehawk Cinema - Prospect Park in Brooklyn, NY. The last time I saw this animated classic in the theater was when my mom took nine-year-old me to see it some 47 years ago.
