The Lord of the Rings, One Volume Edition with the Index and Appendices, published by Unwin Hyman in 1988. This is the 3rd impression (1990) of this lovely edition, featuring the dustjacket artwork by Roger Garland. The dustjacket is price clipped to the lower corner of the front flap. A Near Fine copy of the book, in a New Custom Dark Blue Leather Slipcase. This edition is a bit unusual and quite hard to find, especially in this lovely condition. The book is bound in blue cloth with gilt lettering to the spine, and features a navy blue silk ribbon marker. The book is in Near Fine condition, basically no faults. No previous owners names or any other writing noted. The 1st impressions were issued without any maps, which were reinstated in the last two impressions, and are spread over the last seven pages of the book. An excellent example of this wonderful edition, hard to find as likely limited in numbers issued by Unwin Hyman. Digital photo's available, inquire if interested. Other Tolkien books available, include both the UK and US editions, original cloth bindings, custom fine bindings, and Signed/Numbered/Limited Editions. Near Fine / Near Fine.
