I have heard that Christopher still has most of his father's fiction library. The academic books and pamphlets were sold to several different people in Oxford, one of which attached labels to the books saying 'From the Library of J.R.R. Tolkien".
The biggest auction lot I know of was sold at Sotheby's on 18 December 1992 - the estimate was 1000-1500 GBP. The lot consisted of 392 offprints and pamphlets, 56 of which were annotated by JRRT - all bore the JRRT library label.

Hi Jeremy -
I just left a voicemail with Anthony asking him if he has the time in his schedule (as brief as your questions may be). As he is the HI cochair, I'll defer to him. But I know what it's going to be as my daughter and I did lay out the illustrations, etc yesterday. I am VERY excited about this and am CERTAIN that you are going to enjoy it! On behalf of NETS/HI, thanks for your order. Away from The Green Hill Country, Phil

well, if i'm able to buy more then one copy (which I doubt is allowed) I'll buy a stock of ten or so. I can't afford it either, but believe it to be a good investment. The book looks brillliant!

Have to agree with Stu... the challenge on Book I is to find the UK printed sheets, which there only four thousand of. Still, with a lot of patience and questions to eBay sellers, even these show up occasionally in very nice shape. Sorting the wheat from the chaff is the hard part...
Let me know what your price range is and I will see if I can help.
