Hardback rebound in green leather with gilt raised compartments to spine with titles and date, internally beautiful condition, all pages complete with slight correct age toning.
A lovely signature of JRR Tolkien has been tipped in, inside the front and looks stunning with gold leaf borders to match the binding.

No writing, no annotations, no inscriptions, a wonderful copy.
