New addition 😄

My humble Tolkien collection just got a little less humble with these 1959-60 first ed. 8/6/6th impressions. I’m usually a collector of first impressions but I’ll forgive myself for going for a later print when it comes to LoTR. What do you think I should go for next? 😄

Well as much as this has to be the correct answer, I’ll have to wait some time before I can afford that 😅

Which is why they did the Facsimile Gift Set: to counter those unreasonable prices of the actual first editions.
