Secret Lair - Dungeons & Dragons 50th Anniversary Superdrop - An Exhibition of Adventure

For 50 years, some of the world’s most evocative fantasy art has graced the covers of Dungeons & Dragons tomes, inspiring generations of gamers to imagine themselves in a world suffused with sorcery and danger. In this retrospective drop, we’ve taken some of our favorite cover art from actual Dungeon & Dragons books and paired those pieces with iconic spells.

Across seven cards, you’ll find art from Supplement I: Greyhawk (1975), Players Handbook (1978), the “Red Box” Basic Rules (1983), 2nd Edition Dungeon Master Guide (1989), 3rd Edition Monster Manual (2000), 4th Edition Dungeon Master’s Guide (2008), and 5th Edition Dungeon Master’s Guide (2014).

Art by Greg Bell, Jeff Easley, Larry Elmore, Henry G. Higginbotham, Tyler Jacobson, Wayne Reynolds, and Dave Trampier
