Canadian Bibliography

There is (almost) definitely a Heroic Tales set from the early 80s that has the same style covers as these: http://tolkienbooks.net/php/details2.php?id=1183

I saw a picture of it on eBay. I guess it could have been different edition books put into a non-matching slipcase, but they looked like a decent fit (as Hobbit + LoTR).

Berelach, thanks for the site, I have a problem accessing it via Firefox on the PC, as some certificates that Firefox expect are missing, Chrome ignores this and works fine.

This site tells you what is missing for Firefox and how to install it.

Thanks guys. Stu, I've seen the same but only once, probably the same listing, and I've been constantly checking eBay and collecting this info (from there and other sources) for years. It's not much to go on and I prefer to have a lot more data before making an entry, but maybe I'll throw one up with a caveat.

Thank you Trotter, I'll try and sort that out today.

Well done, Berelach, congratulations for your great job!
It seems that Canadians have a particular liking for paperbacks?

Thank you Ithildin, I really appreciate that!! It might not seem like it (if I organized things right) but it was actually quite lot of work and took me a long time, so I'm very happy and relieved that it's finally finished (tweaking aside).

And yes, they do like their paperbacks; I suppose it's cheaper to have the mass-market stuff printed nearby.

Yeah, I have been keeping my eyes out for another copy of the set and haven't seen one, either.

Good work on the site, by the way. Future generations will thank you (well, they probably won't, but we can continue to kid ourselves )
