  • Individual photographs of Douglas Adams and Steve Meretzky, a larger shot of them seated together, and a shot of the game's packaging and props (all B&W photos).

  • Biographies of Douglas Adams, Steve Meretzky, Marc Blank, and John V. O'Leary (Infocom's Director of Consumer Product Marketing), printed on plain white paper.

  • "Infocom's Interactive Fiction: An Intelligent Product Created Through Advanced Technology", an 11-page overview of Infocom, its technology and its games, printed on blue paper.

  • "Player's Guide" glossary for HHGG, containing information about the characters and strange things encountered in the game. Printed on blue paper.

These materials were obtained from a former Infocom employee who has verified them as original, not reproductions. Some of the press releases and bios have some slight corner wear or creasing where the staples are.

Overall, these items' condition is [VG] by Mobyscale standards.
