Ever buy an old RPG box set and find some maps or a character sheet inside? For me, it conjures up a specific sort of warm feeling. This week on the Vintage RPG Podcast, we take a look at some of Tim Hutchings’ efforts to preserve that sort gaming ephemera in The Habitation of the Stone Giant Lord, a book collecting homebrew D&D adventures written and illustrated by kids. We also look at Hutchings’ reprint of the short-live gaming zine The Oracle. A thrilling expedition into the dusty archives of our hobby’s past!

You can check out more about both projects at Hutchings’ Play Generated Map & Document Archive. Physical copies of both can still be had at his shop, as well!
