I just learned that Jim Kramer passed away last week. Jim was a great adventure designer and graphic artist. He was passionate about traditional gaming, and was a very active member of the community. Back in 2012, I hired Jim to design the boxed set layout for the original version of Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea. Jim lost a long battle with cancer, leaving behind a wife and four children. R.I.P., Jim.

Ah, that is sad to hear: I didn't know him, but the design of the AS&SH boxed set is a treasure (I still really enjoy the small form-factor of 1e). RIP.
