J.R.R. Tolkien Original Paperback Set "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings" Trilo

Description: For your consideration are a set of 5 J.R.R. Tolkien books. These are various paperbacks from various printing times and publishers. Included are: The Fellowship of the Ring- Published by Ace Books 1965 The Two Towers- Published by Ace Books 1965 The Return of the King - Published by Ace Books 1965 The Hobbit - Published by Ballantine Books 1966 Smith of Wootton Major & Farmer Giles of Ham - Published by Houghton Mifflin Company 1978 The three Lord of the Ring books were published by Ace Books. These books were published without Tolkien's blessing, thinking it would be a loophole to avoid paying royalties. These unauthorized Ace editions were soon afterwards discontinued, making them difficult to find. The Hobbit edition is easily available, and is a common copy. The final book published by Houghton Mifflin Company is more difficult to locate, but is still available elsewhere. Condition: Books are in loved condition. Books have creases, and the first LOTR book has had a name written on the top of the first page, and a remainder mark stamp on the top. Please note that The Hobbit front cover has fallen off. This can be repaired or replaced, I simply did not have time to do so. Please see images for more condition information. More photos are available upon request.
