A photo of three "Official Advanced Dungeons and Dragons" books by Gary Gygax, from the 1980s. The first book is the Monster Manual, with a dragon and a pegasus on the front cover. The second book is the Players Handbook, with a bearded, human wizard and a bat/demonlike creature on the front cover. The third book is the Dungeon Masters Guide with a cloaked human figure opening large double doors. Image courtesy of Nick Webber.
