A very similar desk is currently being sold on eBay:
"This result reaffirms the enduring significance of Tolkien’s work," said Thais Hitchins, Head of Sale, "and celebrates the desk’s rarity and historical importance. For collectors, it was a truly exceptional opportunity to own a piece of literary history that carries the spirit of Middle-earth."
