About this Item

A stunningly illustrated edition of Tolkien's classic fantasy, with the 1966 version of the text brought to life with images from the film drawn by Arthur Rankin, Jr. & Jules Bass. Nearly square hardcover quarto (11.75" x 11.00") has brightly colored paper over boards, enhanced with a clear acetate overlay/dust jacket that provides the title/author information to front, along with brightly colored dragon. In 220 pages, lavishly illustrated throughout. Condition is VG+: exceptionally clean & bright, but with very faint damp stain to both ends of spine & slight rippling in one area of back cover. Does not impact interior in any way. Very slightly bumped corners. Pages white & completely unmarked, colors intense, binding strong & straight. The clear DJ is truly Fine: clear & crisp with no tears or opacity. A beauty that belongs in every fan's collection! Our photos depict the exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have! Same day shipping on all orders received by 2 pm weekdays (Pacific time); later orders, weekends & holidays ship very next business day. Sorry: book is too large & heavy for expedited domestic or international shipping without preapproval of extra shipping (at least double per USPS rates).
