To answer your question though: probably. I don't need three copies. And, I didn't pay any more than £100 (well, most expensive was £102) for any of them. But, currently, I'm getting DM to make some nice marbled slipcases for them. In the future I'd like to hand one or two of them on to other collectors though; perhaps if I acquire some different examples first.

Well done Remy a great find and a good question for khamul re selling them for £100. I suspect I know the answer!

I just gave my answer: yes; depending on who to!

There are some old Orcrist issues available:

This issue is probably the most noteworthy for collectors: http://www.tolkienbooks.net/php/details.php?reference=51310

Thanks for that! I had already bought two issues I wanted last night, but somehow missed (or he hadn't listed yet) #8, the final Orcrist issue that is incredibly hard to find. Just went back and added one of those to my order as well.

These are really good fanzines, for those into that sort of thing - started and shepherded by Richard C. West, a noted scholar in the Tolkien field. The club is still active today!

While I am not really an LP collector, I have always liked the BBC radio dramatization artwork and this album cover is a very nice example of it - at a good price!
