new information about Proposal

[Ralph Herold]

It is very pleasing to see that once in a while information becomes available about very old Magic items. Dave Howell, former production manager of Wizards of the Coast back in 1993, has published the most detailed background information about Proposal which has probably ever been officially released. In addition, he has published a few very old publications for real Magic aficionados. You can find the website here: http://howell.seattle.wa.us/mtg

By the way, I am aware that the forum has become untidy. I will soon take care of this situation.

[Mr.C]

untidy? What do you mean?

works now... strange...

This page is an excellent archive of authentic Magic trivia. Thanks for pointing it out. Do you think the Proposal story should be mirrored here?

I didn't used to keep it in a safe, but then somebody made me an offer to buy it.

???

???

I know how much was one of the offer  ;)
A good reason to put it in a safe  ;D

[AXIOS]

it sounds just like he sold it.
Did you offered to buy it alexis? ;)

i especially like the fact that there are alterations (the beginning of unhinged/unglued)  ;D

[TerraFrost]

does anyone have a proposal to make?  with a printer or something?  hehe :)

anyway, thanks for the info, ralph :)

Thanks for the information, Ralph.  Dave's site is an excellent resource.

from the faq's

As soon as possible, we'll switch printing plates to print the
  Revised Edition, with changed wordings on over a hundred cards, new
  and clearer rules, and dark grey borders.




Revised was gonna be like unglued!

WOW
and wellcome to the forum!
I am allways interested in stories and I think a lot of others would like to here some too.
Maybe you could tell us a Chrismas Tale.
greetings from germany

PS: I was the guy that asked you for an empty alpha box on ebay sadly you did not replay to my question jet. But well no hurry!

Hey :)

Welcome onboard. Very interesting story indeed.

it's quite possible that I am the only human being left alive who finds this stuff interesting.

Untrue!, as you may have guessed here :)

Best regards,
Eric.

How about a scan?

[snarke]

Hi, y'all.

to Pickle: Alas, I do not, it turns out, have an old Alpha box. I have only a Beta and Unlimited. And I'm behind on my email a bit. [Maybe I should try to get one; it's the only early box I don't have.  [smiley=smartass.gif] ]

I'll be putting up other files as I find them and have time. Most of the best ones are already there.

I'm here 'cause I finally got organized enough to start clearing out some of the piles of old Magic stuff out of storage, but then had to get a handle on what exactly it all was. Oddly, google searching happened to lead me here.  ::)

Right now, it's mostly booster packs. Individual cards are being sent off to PSA for grading. People w/questions about, oh, whatever, are welcome to email me. I'm likely to check the Forum here only at wildly random intervals.  

[snarke]

Can't. Or rather, won't. Richard and Lily's request is that the artwork on the card not be published. I can show you what it looks like in person, but won't put the image out/up.
