Synopsis
J.R.R. Tolkien's complete artwork for his magisterial novel, published on the sixtieth anniversary of The Lord of the Rings As he wrote The Lord of the Rings , J.R.R. Tolkien's mental pictures often found expression in drawing, from rough sketches made within the manuscript to more finished illustrations. Only a few of these were meant for publication; most were aids to help Tolkien conceive his complex story and keep it consistent. Many do not illustrate the final text, but represent moments of creation, illuminating Tolkien's process of writing and design. In addition to pictorial sketches, numerous maps follow the development of the Shire and the larger landscape of Middle-earth, while inscriptions in runes and Elvish script, and "facsimile" leaves from the burned and blood-stained Book of Mazarbul, support Tolkien's pose as an "editor" or "translator" of ancient records. The Art of The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien collects these drawings, inscriptions, maps, and plans in one deluxe volume. More than 180 images are included, all of them printed in color from high-quality scans and photographs, more than half not previously published. Wayne G. Hammond and Christina Scull, two of the world's leading Tolkien scholars, have edited the book and provide an expert introduction and comments., J.R.R.

    An incredible find at a great value! This rare vintage deck (1969–70) arrived in excellent condition, exactly as described — cards are clean, colors vivid, and the box is beautifully preserved. The seller shipped it the very next day, and it was securely packaged. I truly appreciate the care taken. This is a real gem for collectors, and the price was more than fair considering how rare this set is. Highly recommend this seller — trustworthy, responsive, and professional.

    The Bible arrived in excellent condition and was packed very very well for shipping. The Bible is exactly as it was shown and described in the eBay listing and advertisement. I believe the Bible was very fairly priced making it a great value. The shipping was done expeditiously, thank you for everything you did on my behalf. God bless you, Howard.
