Its Always Been a Dream of Mine to Own a Set of First Edition of The Lord of the Rings. I Found This Set of 8/6/5's For Sale For About $1700 CAD ($ 1200 USD) Ive Been Staring at it Heavily Debating Pulling the Trigger. What Does Everyone Think of This Set? I guess im just looking for a little peer push in pulling the trigger. Some validation that this set looks good and I should finally pull the trigger on this dream. Or should I be patient and keep looking? Its about at the maximum price id want to be spending if that helps.

Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to reply and assist me!

Spines look pretty faded in the pictures. I'd also ask for pictures of the boards and if there is any writing inside if you haven't already. I think that price is pretty fair all things considered, maybe a little high but I'm sure someone who knows the market better will chime in. You may be able to piece together a nicer set of similar or later impressions for cheaper.

Thank you for the response ! There are these 3 pictures of the inside board of each there is a sticker on each of the original book seller. Which honestly I like as it feels like these 3 have been together since the 50s
