The Return of the King: Being the Third Part of The Lord of the Rings By J.R.R. Tolkien. Publisher: George Allen & Unwin Ltd., London, 1973. Second Edition (Revised), Seventh Impression. Hardback with dust jacket. Original red cloth boards feature bright gilt lettering to the spine, showing standard rubbing and bumping to the edges, a minor lean to the spine, and a light vertical crease along the spine with a small dent on the edge. The boards sit slightly open (agape), though the binding remains sound. No internal owner inscriptions or names. Pages are clean and legible throughout, exhibiting light creasing, minor handling marks, light foxing to the closed page edges, and the original pink-stained top edge. PLEASE NOTE: The fold-out map at the rear of the book is missing. The original dust jacket is not price-clipped, but is in tatty condition with staining, foxing, rubbing, creasing, chipping, heavy rubbing along the folds, and small edge tears. 440 pages. The epic, timeless conclusion to J.R.R. Tolkien’s monumental high-fantasy masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings. Published in 1973 during the final year of Tolkien's life, this vintage George Allen & Unwin revised second edition tracks the final desperate struggle for Middle-earth. As Gandalf and Aragorn rally the fractured forces of Gondor against the overwhelming armies of Sauron at Minas Tirith, Frodo and Sam endure the harrowing final steps of their quest through the desolate wastes of Mordor to destroy the One Ring at Mount Doom. Complete with the classic red-and-black Ring design dust jacket, it serves as an authentic, nostalgic vintage reading copy for Tolkien enthusiasts and fantasy collectors. ALL PHOTOS ARE OF THE ACTUAL BOOK. All books are sent with free courier postage within New Zealand.…
