The Fellowship of the Ring - 12th Impression The Two Towers - 9th Impression The Return of the King - 9th Impression Please see photos for condition. The dust jackets are discolored at the spines and other places, but no tears or chips. Top stain is faded towards the spine. Boards are clean and bright. No inscriptions from previous owners. Binding is reasonably tight and no known damage to internal pages (I skimmed them but haven’t read these copies). Fold out maps are present and in great shape. The sixth state (I believe) box has seen better days - it’s worn, discolored, and stained in places and is starting to split at the back left and the top, left corner. Will be packaged and shipped with care. Please message me with any questions - happy to provide any additional information or photos.
