Deluxe Edition 1976 - 5th Impression 1976
the binding is black buckram cloth with gilt highlights on the upper covers - titled in gilt on the spine
[NB shown next to The Hobbit for illustration only - please see our other items - the complete Lord of the Rings is 1193 pages long + maps - The Hobbit is only 286 pages long; the publishers have printed Lord of the Rings on very thin India paper and The Hobbit on slightly thicker paper so the two volumes would look similar and compliment each other on the shelf as shows when side by side ]
the book is in fine condition and appears unread - the box shows evidence of handling with a small partial split to the bottom left hand corner
an attractive example increasingly scarce
box measures 155mm x 230mm

sensible starting bid listed without reserve - any questions please just ask - please see our other items for a First Deluxe Binding Hobbit [item no 251478304028]
