I'm interested in finding a 1979 or maybe even 80's LOTRs doodle kit.
I think these were poster sized black and white boards designed so you could color them in as a kid.
I'd love to get a "new" one of these somewhere. Has anyone ever seen or heard of something like this?

Also, I'm interested in any of those Bakshi animated books, etc.

THEY ARE VERY RARE THAT IS A FACT. BUT SOMETIMES ON EBAY...

Number 3 sounds about right to me. I used to have one as a kid. Nowadays, I'm a "serious" artist and I'd love to see/have one of these again. Thanks!

Hi Urban,
I have a little information online already about the doodle-kits -
https://www.tolkienguide.com/modules/w ... p?page=Bakshi+Doodle+KitsI think those are the ones you are talking about. Unfortunately no images online yet, though Fangorn might be able to provide those. Do these sound like what you are looking for?
If they are, and you do get some pics eventually, I would love if you share the photos so I can post them in the Guide. Thanks!
p.s. I have some of the books illustrated with the animated cel art from the Bakshi movie. I will see what I can post over the next few days about them.

Yeah, those are the ones I believe. I haven't found them anywhere. It's too bad because the art is beautiful.
Love to see some of those cels. Let me know if you get around to posting them! ~DAN

thanks! Looks pretty nice but I'm really set on those b/w posters. I may have to look into those coloring books in the future though. Thanks for posting!

THANKS so MUCH, Jeremy! That's it! The Doodle Kit you showed there is the one I'm looking for. I'd love to find one of those! I'll have to save that image and hopefully it will help me to locate one.
Much appreciated!
