Interesting to see the different covers for two of these UK books, The Complete Guide to Middle-earth and John Garth's Tolkien's War (How J.R.R. Tolkien survived the Great War).

I think Tolkien and the Great War was the better choice.

Never noticed that before. Thanks for pointing it out.

And yes - agreed!

George Allen & Unwin, Complete Catalogue - May 1939

Evidently, they had not yet learned how to spell "Tolkien"

Not sure if this one qualifies as a "Publisher Catalogue"

Het Buiten Landsche Boek 1937

Seems to be a Dutch Distributor / Publisher?
