Typed Letter Signed TLS introducing The Lord of the Rings
$37,500 · Offered by Manhattan Rare Books
“There is no more about Mirkwood or the northern countries, I am afraid; and the story moves away down the Great River to the kingdoms of the South. But there is a great deal of Ancient History and geography and genealogy in it: too much, I dare say, for all but the most devoted friends of Hobbits… But I hope very much that when at last you get it you will not be disappointed. It will take a very long time to read, even once, and even quickly!” EIGHT
