By the way, while we're on the subject, I'm looking for a NICE,
preferably illustrated copy of The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings to
give as a wedding gift.  I know there is a decent illustrate edition of
TH still in print, but I' like something older.  I've heard that at one
time or another there was an edition published with Tolkien's own
illustrations; does anybody have information on that?  Just out of
curiosity, anybody know how much a first edition HOBBIT might go for?
Any other suggestions would be welcome.

(I know about book searches, etc. but I'm moving soon and I've been
having some trouble with the local book dealers.  I'd just like to know
what you all know about.  If anyone has something they might like to
sell, let me know, I'll think about it.)

Reply to me presonally,
