I have quite a few reprint copies of The Making of The Lord of the Rings; if any of the regulars would like a copy (for less), message me or e-mail me: calbookkings(at)yahoo.com.

Very good price at the moment on a UK 3rd Impression Hobbit, without a dustjacket.

Seller seems to have messed up on Shipping costs, i.e. quoting £150 to send from the UK to Italy, so please bear this in mind if you decide to bid.

The seller has also not shown any images, or discussed the top of the book, which should have a green stain on it.

Just for clarity, it isn't "No.1" of the 500. They can also be picked up for at least 100 pounds less than this one.
