The 1925 "Year's Work in English Studies" does not come up very often.

Interesting? Wonders? I don't really know anymore. Stated first impressions though.

A secretarial letter from 1965 tipped into this book.

I thought the secretarial letter was interesting as it added a comment regarding the Ace editions being pirate copies. Interesting because the date of that letter (20 May, 1965) corresponds to another letter from Tolkien (letter #270) also dated 20 May, 1965, where Tolkien mentions to Rayner Unwin in a PS that he is “now inserting in every note of acknowledgement to readers in the U.S.A. a brief note informing them that Ace Books is a pirate, and asking them to inform others.”

Interesting confirmed.

I have a set (in first impressions) of this boxset and would be willing to sell, if someone is super interested in acquiring btw.
