I think it went a long way in showing that a Basic book POD is a viable solution.
To further that end, here is a book from roughly the same time period and with a similar scan.
The Gamma World boxed set is more of a contemporary with the Holmes D&D boxed set but it is also currently in POD on RPGNow/Drivethru RPG and I got my book in the mail last week.
The cover is the same as the box art. As opposed to the cover of the book inside the box.
All of the box contents are reproduced in the book. Except for adventure and dice.
The text is rather clear and very easy to read. In fact reading through this again today I found things in the rules that I either forgotten about or never knew!
It is in much better shape than my old GW book.
The PODs from WotC/DriveThru keep getting better and better. So there is a reasonable expectation that a Basic set POD will look much better than my 15-minute effort.
Looking forward to seeing more PODs from Wizards/DriveThru and hopefully, Basic/Expert D&D will be part of that!
