Hi All,

I have a copy of the 1st edition 1st printing of the Silmarillion, and I believe it has an interesting misprinting that I haven't seen discussed anywhere. Specifically, pages 160, 161, 172, 173, 176, 177, 188, 189 are completely blank. I mean the pages are there, but they are completely blank. I have no idea what could have happened with this specific book that resulted in 8 blank pages. For reference, it does have the "Father Giles of Ham" typo, and the text on page 229 is completely intact. I was just curious if anyone had ever encountered or heard about such an error before on the Silmarillion first printings.

Thanks a lot
