Published by George Allen & Unwin, this set of 7th impressions holds historical significance as many corrections J.R.R. Tolkien anticipated in the Revised Edition were overlooked, prompting an immediate re-printing of the 2nd edition. A tangible piece of Tolkien’s meticulous revisionist endeavors.

All three volumes shine in Fine condition, with immaculate red boards, untarnished bright gilt, and unfaded top stain, encasing a vibrant textblock free from foxing or offsetting. A whisper of dust adorns the red top stains and the forefront of the text block, barely discernible yet a testament to their vintage charm.

Original maps securely affixed, without additional folds or tears, invite readers to traverse the enchanting landscapes of Middle-earth. The dust jackets, unclipped and in Good condition, exhibit minor wear and edge rubbing, yet protectively embrace the books, preserving their allure.

No inscriptions, writings, or markings mar the pages, maintaining a pristine reading experience. A collectable edition that not only enchants with its content but enthralls with its well-preserved condition.

An alluring collectable edition of The Lord of the Rings, beckoning to grace the shelves of a discerning collector.
