Hi, everyone. I dug out my "Adventure party with treasure pile" copy of Dungeon! in order to inventory it for a potential trade. I noticed that on the lid, in the upper-right corner, instead of the TSR logo seen in this picture
there are the words "By TSR" and the little "wizard" character above the words "The Game Wizards". Also, the words "Fantasy Boardgame" are located along the bottom of the lid, along with the "For 2-8 players...." text, instead of below the title and in the lower right corner, respectively.
Also, this copy has instructions that call for white pawns, but there are no white pawns in the box. Instead, there are yellow pawns. I originally thought that perhaps someone replaced missing pawns, but the yellow ones are clearly the same mold as the other six pawns. (I suppose it's possible that all eight pawns have been replaced.)
Anyone have any info, specifically on the logo variant?
Thanks!
-- Pete

Pete, you might be noting differences between the 1975 and 1981 versions of the game (not to be confused with two later re-issues, the New Dungeon and then Classic Dungeon).
