Fantastic Treasures was written by , with a cover by Boris Vallejo, and was published by Mayfair Games in 1984 as a 96-page book.^[1]

In a September 28, 1984 agreement between Mayfair and TSR, Mayfair was given a perpetual, royalty-free license to use the AD&D trademark but only in connection with the Role Aids books and only with very specific text and graphics, agreed upon by the two parties. Fantastic Treasures (1984) was the first product to contain the new text, as well as the words Advanced Dungeons & Dragons in a simpler, sans-serif font, all inside a red cartouche that would be used throughout the rest of Mayfair's history.^[2]^: 167
