Very scarce 4th state box set (1959/1960)
This state is the only one to have a linen covered box, also the sturdiest of all the boxes.

Would want to see more images to get a clear take on the condition, looks like the box has water damage or extreme foxing, perhaps even mold...it's hard to tell.

Definitely had some storage issues in its life. If it was super-cheap, someone might be able to restore it with the kinds of chemicals that need a fume cupboard, I suppose.

The Ancrene Riwle


Similar price to other copies sold and looks to be in nice condition. Available from OXFAM SHOP for £125

First Edition 1955 Burns & Oates

With a preface by Prof J R R Tolkien, rendered into Modern English by M B Salu with an introduction and appendix by Dom Gerard Sitwell.

This edition is tight and intact and retains its dustjacket which is complete with no tears or losses although it has been price clipped.

There is the name of a previous owner on the first free page but no foxing or other markings.
