I'm wondering if anyone can help me out with this; is this the first printing of the Canadian paperback Lord of the Rings edition?
According to Hammond's Bibliography, The Lord of the Rings "was published in Canada by Ballantine Books under license from Allen & Unwin from 1965 through the end of 1966." (p120) The American Ballantine books (Remington art covers) state that there were seven Canadian printings between 1965 and 1969. Is the ISBN on the back cover of this any indication that it is not from 1965? Does anyone have any further information regarding the Canadian printings? Any help would be much appreciated as always, thanks!

I'll update this thread if I come across anything myself.
