Hi,
I'm looking for
The Lord of the Rings.
The Lord of the Rings: A Reader’s Companion.
50th Anniversary Edition 2005Seems to be very hard to find though not very old.
Can anybody help me? Thanks in advance!!!

It's a nice set that I'm quite interested in acquiring too. So, no, I can't help you!
They seem to fall into that category of books that haven't made the specialist market yet (where they will be well described, but probably overpriced), but sit with all these secondary/discount sellers. They're usually selling new, poorly describe their books (in a bibliographical sense), & don't answer questions (books are in some warehouse). All perfectly useless to the collector.

That is a nice set. Does anyone here own it?

Is there an ISBN for this set?
Also, does anyone know where it has been published (UK or US)?

One for sale at Alibris from Canada, a mere £385 plus shipping presumably...
Or you could do what I am and buying them separately, not quite the same though! F
