The Lord of the Rings, 1966, First Edition Set, last, The Fellowship of the Ring, Two Towers, Return of the King

Descripción:

Allen and Unwin. 1966, 1966, 1965, 15, 12, 11 Last printing of the first edition, same year as the new 1996 2nd editions. Of all the first edition sets, this is the most scarce. We can only speculate why. 1966 was the first printing of the second edition produced for copyright reasons for the Ballantine paperback USA license problem.They needed a new edition even though they had released this set around May of that year. Jackets and books have uniform wear and tanning, only one owners name in FotR, so we can't say if they were purchased together. Various stains and small tears, but jackets complete and above condition. Books are clean and binding tight. A rare opportunity to add a unique set to your collection. First editions with complete unrestored jackets are disappearing every year. N° de ref. del artículo 002481
