This site was down when I was searching the other day.

Type tolkien into the search box and there are LOTS of first day covers - I was going to mention them at TolkienBooks, but have chickened out - they are a website on their own!

Hi Deagol,

I have a 1992 Centenary First Day Cover and the £6 Centenary Book of Stamps (which I guess you probably have already). I will send a couple of scans tomorrow.

Regards.

I am looking for information on Tolkien-related stamps issued in the UK by the Royal Mail, especially First Day Covers issued in 1992 and 2004.

Does anybody know what was issued?

If you own any some scans would be appreciated.

As always, thanks for the info Beren. Look forward to your discussion with them. You might also ask them if HC will be publishing this in the U.S., or if Houghlin Mifflin will be picking up the U.S. publication. Thanks!

And of course the info given at amazon is not realistic... have been talking with Doug about the book some months ago. The 40 pages unpublished material was put on there by the publishers as well as the publication date... but already Doug told me it will probably be finished later. As well the that there are no 40 unpublished pages, yet some parts here and there... well i have arranged an article with Verlyn and Doug in about three months from now about the project and will then give more accurate info!
