Trotter's old tat

Urulókë mentioned this book in our recent livestream and I bought a copy. Was very pleased to find that it was stamped

This book belongs to HMCO Library

An interesting book that does have a few pages on Tolkien and the connection with Houghton Mifflin.

Would love a 1938 Hobbit with that stamp

Nice book Trotter. Goes nicely in a complimentary way with Rayner Unwin's "A Remembrancer".

I really like this set, and it is possible to eventually get 'good' copies.

Been on the lookout for one of these for a long time, not in the best condition, but seemly difficult to find.

The Unwin Hyman Unfinished Tales hardback.
