O my o my what is going on.
Maybe the ash from the UK has drifted the sellers way and confused his/her mind?
Maybe it was typed by our favourite doctor on that famous typewriter?
or
Maybe alien's have landed and glued it together for Tolkien?

The latter more likely and that says it all!

I see the bidding has ended - the item is no longer for sale.

I'd like to think that Stu's excellent 100% correct valuation had something to do with the removal. Fantastic

Hi, I assume you are referring to the horrible cut-and-paste nightmare of a book listed on eBay. Fortunately it is very easy to give an accurate value for this one: Zero. The handy thing about this value is that it applies in any currency :) Cheers Stu
