H.E. Riddett produced coloured versions of many of Tolkien's B&W illustrations

I looked at the picture, and thought - nothing special, just an Ace edition for a non-ridiculous price. Then I clicked through, and laughed (and laughed, and laughed). There are at least three levels of head-scratching with this one...

Thanks for sharing, Jlong.

I don't have any problem with displaying stuff, but could we not just have displayed the whole book? Strange. Maybe the cover came off years ago. Did we really need twelve photographs of it too?

No, I cannot think of any excuses for this useless listing, If you had all the books in the dodgy Ace paperbacks, you could at least sell all three of the 1st edition text (I have all of them )

What do we have here? A single edition of Two Towers of a deluxe set?

This ranks at the top of my list for one of the worst fakes ever produced and listed for sale: eBay Item #181258494592

I hope you all enjoy it. Please report it.

Jlong - that is absolutely horrendous! My nine-year-old son could have forged a better example than that.

Indeed, what a mess! I reported this a few days ago. Quite funny really...
