Just spotted Sotheby's 10 July 2003 Catalog on eBay - no relation to seller. The seller will only ship to UK so not for me.

This catalog contains snippets of (and partial photographs of) three letters from Tolkien not included in Letters. See tolkienbooks.net article for details.

This is the work referenced in Hammond & Scull's Reader's Guide. Please note though, it does not included an image of 'Der Berggeist'.

I think this particular copy of The Silmarillion (the 1992 HarperCollins Ed. with Howe DJ) was discussed in the "Wonders of..." thread (because of the price) a while back. I remember someone saying they were really looking for a copy.

Personally, I think this price is (also) far too much; but I thought I'd flag up it's availablility anyway.

The Silmarillion (with Four B&W Maps at Rear )( Lord of the Rings related)
Book Description: London: HarperCollins / Harper Collins, 1992, 1st HC Edition, 1st Printing, 1992. Hard Cover. Book Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine / Price Clipped.

Seriously? I don't think either of these prices are very good. Given, these are pretty hard to get hold of; but £1000+ is pretty steep. (And not very good if you already have one or two volumes.)

In November/December (2012) five decent copies came up on eBay (--all of these were in the Fine/new category):

November
Vol. III £129
December
Vol. II £183 (shrinkwrapped)
Vol. I £286/$464
Vol. II £135/$218
Vol. III £101/$163

And in January:
Vol. II £117

The highest combination for vol. I, II, & III from above equals £598; the highest for vol. II & III equals £312. So... those auctions look pretty high to me. Add 'em up!

This is a good starting price for ten hardback volumes of HoMe -
