Without any doubt front cover of The Fellowship of the Ring from artist Igor Kordej (first Croatian edition)

This German edition is my favourite Hobbit cover.
If you compare the lineaments of Gandalf with the photo you can see similarities: it is Walter Scherf (1920-2010), a German writer and fairytale researcher. He was the translator of The Hobbit. Giving Gandalf his face in the illustrations and the dustwrapper was a Hommage to him.

El Hobito is pretty cool, though Gandalf is a bit odd.
It almost looks like he's wearing knee high women's boots...
Also, what's up with alien Gollum?

Probably would have went with the Finnish Hobbit but as Urulöké has already posted this one, my next choices would be the 1987 Moldovan and 1975 Bulgarian Hobbits.
