Hopefully we can see the other half of your collection?

I’ll be honest... my collection is rather poor compared to what most people on here have.

I do own most of the Harper Collins deluxe editions (these represent the “highlight” of my collection) and a couple other paperbacks (the ones with the black covers from early 2000s which were my very first foray into Tolkien’s works more than a decade ago).

I’m looking forward to receiving the hardback of Maker of Middle-earth in a few days.

...didn't want to withhold my largest 'book' from you...
(Hobbit serve as a model)

It is huge! Which book is it?

It is the collectors edition of 'War of the Ring'

Beautiful collection Trotter! Thanks for sharing!

Interesting little bundle of an Oxford student from the (I think) early 1960s. The wrapper with the egregious spelling error is the pages of Proceedings of the British Academy (1937; reprint of Tolkien's lecture) bound as a standalone booklet.

I saw this nice little lot on eBay, congratulations!

Happy winner, Berelach :)))
I was also interested, but I didn’t manage to wake up in the middle of the night for bidding...
