J.R.R. Tolkien – The Adventures of Tom Bombadil – First Edition
£600.00
A first edition, first printing published by George Allen and Unwin in 1962. A stunning, colourfully illustrated near fine (or better) book without inscription, but with a tiny bump to head and foot of spine. In a fine unclipped wrapper with a slight rubbing to head of the spine.
A fabulously illustrated (Pauline Baynes) collection of poetry by J.R.R. Tolkien. It has cultivated a devoted fan impact within the expansive realm of Middle-earth enthusiasts. While not a central part of “The Lord of the Rings” narrative, Tom Bombadil’s enigmatic character and whimsical adventures have sparked curiosity and fan theories. Devotees celebrate the book for its glimpses into the broader mythology of Middle-earth and its poetic exploration of folklore.
