The Hobbit – J.R.R. Tolkien | Deluxe Edition 1984 3rd Impression | Allen & Unwin | Fine

A highly attractive Deluxe Edition of The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, published by George Allen & Unwin, 1984 – Third Impression.

This example presents in Near Fine condition, remaining tightly bound, square and structurally sound, with clean, bright pages throughout. The book has clearly been well cared for and displays beautifully as a shelf copy or within a Tolkien collection.

There is minor internal scribbling, fully disclosed and clearly visible in the accompanying photographs. This is light and unobtrusive, and does not detract from the book’s overall presentation or integrity. Importantly, there are no binding issues, no looseness, and no structural faults.

The original slipcase is not present, which is reflected in the pricing. Book-only copies of this Deluxe Edition, particularly in genuine Fine condition, are increasingly difficult to source.

A sound and honest copy of a desirable Tolkien Deluxe Edition, offered at a realistic collector price.
