Deluxe Starter Traveller?

[Guardian]

Does anyone else have a copy of the Deluxe version of Starter Traveller, with the 8.5x11 books from Starter Traveller, plus 2 introductory booklets? Just wondering how rare my copy is. It's not even mentioned in the FFE Original Traveller overview.

It was never sold as a separate thing.

Deluxe can be either

• LBB's Bk0-3 + Adv 0
• ST Bk 0-3 + LBB Bk 0

I'm unaware of a third version, but one might exist.

It's a thinner box like the Starter Traveller box but with the classic Beowulf text on the cover.

I knew it existed but it is the one iteration I do not yet own a copy of.
If I ever see one for sale at a reasonable price that will be sorted.

I've been collecting for a long time and this is the first example I've ever run across.

Starter Traveller was my first Traveller ruleset!

Deluxe Starter Traveller was the set I started with, way back when. It got so much usage the Charts and Tables cover became mostly white, not black.

I could swear I saw an accounting of the print runs of the various books in CT, I just don't remember where....

There is one at the start of the LBB:0-8 reprint by FFE.

Yep that is the critter....

No mention of Deluxe Starter Traveller...

IIRC there were Deluxe boxes with the softcover Traveller Book as the rules plus the usual extras.

It may have been a way of getting rid of stock before the MT revision.

I've never heard of that one before. I'd love to see an example of that one.
