Here is the ultimate record of how Dungeons & Dragons came to be. The Making of Original D&D is an extraordinary collection of rare documents that shed light on D&D’s origin story. Uncover materials never released to the public, including Gary Gygax’s first draft of original D&D, and early published writings such as the 1974 original D&D “white box” booklets and supplements. Each document is featured alongside insightful commentary from one of the game’s foremost historians, Jon Peterson.

Disclaimer:

We (Wizards) recognize that some of the legacy content in this product does not reflect the values of the Dungeons & Dragons franchise today. Some older content may reflect ethnic, racial, and gender prejudices that were commonplace in American society at that time. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today. This content is presented as it was originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed. Dungeons & Dragons teaches that diversity is a strength, and we strive to make our D&D products as welcoming and inclusive as possible. This part of our work will never end.

Contents:
  • Unearth the very first draft of original D&D, never released to the public until now. Crafted on Gygax’s home typewriter, this 1973 document contains handwritten notes by both Gygax and Arneson.
  • Discover approximately 30 early articles and rare documents that lay the foundation for modern D&D, including unpublished correspondence between Gygax and Arneson.
  • Peruse a remarkable collection of magazine and fanzine articles, many of which are no longer publicly available or remain undiscovered by D&D historians and fans of classic D&D.
  • Flip through facsimiles of all the first printings of Original D&D, compiled in a single book for the first time in D&D’s publishing history.
  • Explore the creation and development of the original 1974 game with insightful commentary by Jon Peterson, one of D&D’s foremost historians.
  • Commemorate our 50th anniversary with this homage to D&D's past. We invite you to look back on D&D’s history with a discerning eye as we celebrate how far D&D has come. Here’s to 50 years, and 50 more!

Easy and quick to assemble, looks great!
My husband loves to collect different fragrances. I could have worse “problems” than him smelling good, I guess! But it has meant bottles galore. I grabbed this to bring some order to the chaos. It arrived in pieces with screws and a little screwdriver (it was so cute!) In all, it took me about ten minutes or less to assemble. It was super easy and the instructions were perfect. The pieces are labeled so there is no doubt you’re doing it right. When putting the spinner on the bottom, there is a hole you can rotate so you can attach the screws one at a time through the hole. It’s very sturdy once put together and holds all the heavy bottles with no issue. It truly does hold a ton! It looks way better than bottles all over the table. The black is very modern and clean looking. I did take photos of a spot where the faux leather was peeling up a bit from the edges, but I was able to use a credit card to smooth it down pretty well. This is a great organizer that look way more expensive than it is. He was super excited when he got home from a late meeting and I had put it together for him. He got right to work loading it up with bottles. And of course, it would be great for makeup or any other things of similar size you would want to organize. A great value to tidy up your space!

This product is not worth the price.
The screws were still very loose even after being tightened, and they couldn't be made to fit tightly. This resulted in the entire product being loose and unsteady. I spent 31 US dollars on this defective item. I'm very regretful. I will return it. The overall workmanship is not perfect. It's too bad!!!

Smooth Rotating Organizer – Looks Great & Holds a Lot
This was a hit in our house. I originally got it for myself, but my wife quickly pointed out that she has about 20 perfumes while I only have a few colognes… so it officially became hers. The assembly was very easy, with clear instructions that made putting it together quick and straightforward. Once assembled, it has a really nice black wood grain finish that looks clean and modern on a dresser or bathroom counter. The 360° swivel works smoothly, which makes it easy to access everything without having to move bottles around. It also holds a good amount, so it’s perfect for anyone with a growing collection.

It is really well made and perfect for travel!
It is just like the picture and it is lovely. Plenty of room and under the tray it is large enough for changes with pendents. It is perfect for a girl and will be perfect for the amount of jewerly you take when traveling. Thank You!

Very nice little box.
This is a great little jewelry box. I don’t have tons of jewelry right now, so this fits everything well, and the leather-look material is very nice. I like the simple design and organization, and it is a nice size to travel with. It looks really pretty sitting on my dresser and goes with the aesthetic of my home well.
