Facebook is so awful. I cannot find this post on their page.
I assume this is the group you mean: https://www.facebook.com/TolkienSociety

Here's what I found on FB just now (post links only until I get permission to share their photos)

https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheTol ... malink/10158408505206068/

The posters are a color version of the map, and Alan Lee's illustration that is used for the dustjacket on the standard edition (which is obviously not on the cover of the deluxe edition, as the slipcase has Nasmith's Blue Wizards and the top board has an inset of John Howe's Nazgûl.)

I only see the map in those photos, not the other image.

So how do we know what the other poster is of?

Alan Lee's answer to one of my interview questions that will be published on Monday.

Oh! Well then! That's great

I wasn't doubting that you knew it, was curious HOW you knew it

If that image is being used as the other poster, then I don't think there will be a frontispiece at all (if there were no posters, and a frontispiece was included, it'd most likely be Alan Lee's image). That is, of course, if the standard edition has one in which case it would also be in the collector's edition.
