Description: This auction is for a very rare True 1977 First edition, of; "The Silmarillion" by JRR Tolkien, edited and published in 1977 by his son, Christopher, after JRR's death in 1974. This version has a folded, opening map included which I believe makes it the original printing. Publisher is shown as George Allen & Unwin rather than Harper Collins who now is linked to the ISBN number. A true first edition of the Silmarilion, published by William Clowes and sons. Clowes and Sons were exporters who made the true first prints in time for the launch date. Condition is excellent but please read the condition statement re the map page. Please look carefully at the photos and feel free to ask any questions before bidding, good luck! The photographs are of the item for sale, the one you will receive if your bid / offer is successful - I do not use stock photos.

The 3 days handling specified on my listings is a maximum, in almost all cases its much quicker. If you have a particular expediency need, let me know. No reserve.
