Beautiful work posted in its entirety at The Golden Age. I talk about my admiration of Sienkiewicz here.

Christine K and her Ewok friend (also made by Kenner) among the Imperial Shuttle, the B-Wing Fighter, the Dewback reissue, the Y-Wing Fighter, the Tie Interceptor, and a slew of figures. I also see a couple of 1985 calendars: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Duran Duran.

The cover image is via Tome of Treasures. The ad is from Dragon #33 (January, 1980). I don’t have any of the interior art, unfortunately, but the art credits are as follows:
John Barnes: April and January (1981).
Dale Carlson: January (1980), May, September, and December.
Elladan Ellrohir (real name: Kenneth Rahman): February and November. Rahman, apart from artwork under several different guises, co-designed TSR’s Divine Right and Knights of Camelot games.
Phil Foglio: June.
Bill Hannan: front cover (from Dragon #1), July, and October.
Dean Morrisey: March and August.
The incomparable Darlene did the titles and title illustrations. With due respect to the other artists, that’s what I want to see most.
I thought the first Dragon calendar came out in ’79, but I can’t seem to find any evidence.
