What book/set in your collection was the hardest to obtain?
For me, its probablly the Ballantine Paperback Reprint Edition from 1986 and 1987 ![Open in new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://tolkien.skwishmi.com/imgs/lotr/uspb/uspbb7.jpg");) While I have much rarer books in my collection they were easy to get. It was strangly hard for me to find a collectable copy of this set with a good box and no cracked spines. How about you? What was a challange for you to find?

Thats a nice find. I like these obscure editions more than anything else in tolkien collecting. Especially when its something not in any bibliography.

Are tolkien collectors the most hardcore completeists? |

It seems like most collectors of other authors mostly want first editions. Tolkien collectors seem to be more "completeist" in their approach.
What do you think?
