I think I basically stole this 1st edition ROTK off some fellow… it wasn’t your eBay price, let’s just say that lol. I had no idea what condition it was gonna be in because all I had was some low quality pic of the front of the DJ and that’s it. Safe to say I’m satisfied with this one I think. It’s looking nice in its new Mylar jacket. Do you guys think there’s anything I can do to this jacket to help it? Don’t think so.
It’s overall good. Happy new year everyone :)

Sure I have asked this before but does anyone know of any other sites for Tolkien facsimile dustjackets?

That's nice, but I think that style is for the 7th impression and below. This is the later print with the brown background and blue lettering on the dustjacket. Wonder if you can get one of those? I like having the original DJ though at least. Too bad it's almost impossible to find one in perfect condition lol.
Surely a side effect of this release never having a slip case.
Kicking off 2023 NY by unboxing the previously discussed US 1st/1sts, with the awaited little nick in the TT's title. Avg to good condition, unclipped.
sheesh I bet that cost a pretty penny. Real firsts eh. Very nice. Lock those up in a environmentally controlled vault. Happy new year.wheresrob wrote:
