TCG Letter #822


From
Tolkien's Secretary
To
Randy Trimmer
Date
7 April 1971
Type
Typed Letter Signed
Transcript
Complete
Tolkien sends a standard form reply to Mr. Trimmer, apologising for not being able to write anything personal as he is working on The Silmarillion.

This letter is reproduced in the journal Amon Dîn (Vol.2, No.1). Note that Hammond's Bibliography has a typo, mistakenly saying volume "2, no. 4, whole no. 4" - but v2n4 is actually whole number 7, from September 2, 1973. It should say "2, no. 1, whole no. 4". This error is continued into the TolkienBooks.net entry for this letter from Hammond.

It is likely that this letter is the same content as Letter from Tolkien's Secretary to Paul • 7 April 1970 (#816).

A copy of this fanzine is held at the Marquette archives.
