1. How can 1994 be movie versions? 2. How can 2005 and 2014 bothe be 50th Anniversary Editions. 3. As far as I know, every version will have the black printed Moria door picture and the family trees and language texts as part of the appendix.

What a collection best fantasy book of all time!

[@3riversbooks]

Couldn't agree more!

[@simonedwards9450]

The 1994 U.K. hardback edition with Gandalf on the front is my favourite. It’s the one my dad brought me for my eleventh birthday. I’ve still got it and even though it is wrecked through constant re-reads, it is still one of my treasured possessions. Got both hardback and paperback edition

[@dustymetso]

That's a really nice story thank you for sharing. Any chance I can see a picture of what your copy looks like? I like seeing well-loved books.

[@EndlessWaltz]

Thank you for breaking these down for us. I am wanting to build my collection and this helps a ton.

[@3riversbooks]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Tuatha_De_Gaming]

How does a 1994 book have movie covers when they came out in the 2000s???

[@michaeljdauben]

I've got the old dark red edition in the slip case. It was a Christmas present from my parents, after I wore out my original paperback copies. I've reread that book probably a dozen times over the years. The only other one volume edition I have is the new white cover edition with illustrations by the author.

[@sharksbean]

The movies weren’t 1994 they were 2001-2003

[@VoodiIsGod]

that´s what i was thinking

[@happymelv]

Seeing you great J.R. Tolkien LotR collection was awesome 😍 Thank you!!! ...my oldest hardbook LotR is 1980 (when I was born) Guild Publishing (UK) but I purchased in eBay 2020.

[@carlitosvlogs2808]

Congratulations, amazing collection ❤️.

The Artwork for the first edition on the dust-jacket that you show is by Pauline Baynes. She produced a tryptic for the first deluxe three volume edition of The Lord of the Rings in 1963. This edition shows two of the three parts, which correspond to sections of the story. Tolkien really liked the artwork and bought the original picture from Pauline.

[@3riversbooks]

Thank You for the correction.

[@Bourne1984]

Good spot. I have the 1976 deluxe first edition of the Hobbit which is probably my favourite book and the 1980 deluxe Poems and other Stories.

[@nickmat3153]

1994 can’t be movie tie-in. Movies didn’t come out til 2001/2

[@Bourne1984]

Great video. I have that U.K. Gandalf cover that a friend bought me in 2001 when I bumped into him in a bookshop when I was on the way to see the first film. Still have it to this day. Dust jacket is long gone though. I just this week received a 2001 but brand new harper collins deluxe edition with the bible paper. Very luxurious, cost an arm and a leg but worth it. I was after the first 1997 print but they are like gold dust as they printed 1k copies but due to a binding issue only a few hundred made it out to market. In this case I’m very happy with second place.

[@user-xj3yo1wi3f]

I’m considering buying this edition but the price just keeps me dithering. I really want a nice but handy edition of the whole trilogy but the recent editions are all so huge😢

[@Bourne1984]

@@user-xj3yo1wi3f if your in the states there is a lightly used but very nice condition 2nd printing up for $450. I’m in the U.K. so with shipping and import tax it came to nearly as much as I paid for my unused copy. The way I see it is there will always be a demand for quality hard to find Tolkien so if you take care of it and of course they become even harder to find then you won’t lose anything if you need to sell. It’s the old justification trick.

[@Slim3398]

Where are the unboxing videos? It’s been 5 months

[@dustymetso]

I've got that big red paperback, it's treated me well throughout the years. Also have a box set of paperbacks from 93.

[@michaelignatius2526]

Where is the book openings you promised us?!

[@salmanhyder1655]

Awesome. I too have all these ❤🎉

[@Chaplain_Bradley]

As nice as the "shelf queen" single volume illustrated editions are, I think if I ever upgrade from my basic 1993 edition Houghton Mifflin hardcover three-volume set, it will be for the Hobbit + LOTR four-volume hardcover illustrated set that came out a year or two ago.

[@phoenix3754]

I have those and I want to tell you one or two things about those. Those are good editions, the paper quality is really good, cover design is really good. But, keep this in mind, the illustrated pages are not glazed pages, they are just simple ones which effect the contrast in the pictures. Same goes for the dust jackets. The dust jackets on those are also not glazed and that effects the contrast on the dust jacket which makes them look dull. They look good in pictures you might find online but they do look a little dull irl for my taste at least.

[@mikeworkman1759]

Did you open up those deluxe versions yet? Which one is your favorite?

Thanks for this!!

[@thehamiltonshow]

Impressive

[@ceeece]

It makes me nervous for your books to hear that it’s hot and humid there. Books with shrink wrap can trap moisture. Hopefully your books are safe! I have the 2004 Slipcase hardback edition. It is awesome! New subscriber!

[@maxelkjaernersting]

I see The History of The Hobbit in the background 👀

[@cursecuelebre5485]

6:29 I was incredibly lucky because I have that specific book and I found it at a thrift store. It got it in a very good price.

[@gsdlife09]

wait the cover with the nazgul is taken from the movie, The fellowship of the ring was out in 2001( has it been that long?), so how come the nazgul scene from the movie is on the 1994 edition of the book?

[@elbowache]

18:43 fa-sill-la-me Great video. Got the 2005 50th. Real reader.

[@ThisHandleSystemCanGetNicked]

Would you get the 2014 illustrated edition or the 2022 edition (either one)?

[@2022spacekw]

wow wow wowo

[@timtate226]

Informative video and an impressive collection. But the chimey audio is very distracting.

[@nickmat3153]

Probably 2004?
