Yeah, been talking to him as well, here's the story:

"I had about 75 to 100 of 'em a couple of weeks ago, when I came across a
box-full of this stuff in the attic, but I threw all of 'em away except for
a half-dozen or so.  There *might* be more up there somewhere, but I kinda
doubt it.

"I should've thought to list them on eBay before tossing all of them,
though.  A *really* stupid move on my part -- I had *no* idea that so many
people would be interested in owning a copy.

"I remember the golden days of Amazement Grafix quite fondly.  At the time
it cost me about 50 cents to put a copy together, and I sold 'em for $7.50
each through a classified ad in "SoftTalk" magazine ($10 a month for the
ad).  I ran the ad until "SoftTalk" went out of business, and by the time
the magazine folded (just over a year after I'd started selling the maps)
I'd sold $36,000 (!!!) worth of 'em."

B-)
