That's quite a few copies of The Silmarillion wellinghall! Why so many? They all look the same to me...

If you don't tell anyone, Khamûl, I'll let you into a little secret. I've really only got one copy, but I've been practising my Photoshop skills.

Sadly for you that's not quite true. I fear you probably have a few shelves of identical looking spines there...
EDIT: Btw, was that a 1982 Silmarillion I saw on one of the earlier photos you posted? I thought you never had one?

In my humble opinion, collecting multiple Silmarillions is a very wise thing to do.
After the Hobbit films I guess there is a high probability that Silmarillion will be filmed. So the price of the original books will just go up!

"High probability"? If you mean, by this, ever; then, yes, I suppose. But it's not likely to be filmed while it's in copyright I don't think. Incidentally, I only have one or two actual duplicates. And, I don't have a photograph of all of them to post here.

The only ones of ours that would otherwise be duplicates are distinguished by the signatures.

Tolkieniano - wonderful photos of your collection, thanks for posting them!
I see my dozen or so Silmarillions are small potatoes compared to some collections here (and I don't even have the USA edition...)
Meanwhile, I obtained today what seems to be a pretty much unread 1959 Hobbit in a dustjacket to match! It will now replace the unjacketed one on my shelves. Here it is...
