The Silmarillion by J. R. R. Tolkien [First Edition]

Hardcover; 8vo. First edition, first printing, as evidenced by lack of punctuation after line 4 on p. 330. With the Willaim Clowes imprint, somewhat earlier and somewhat more scarce than the other. Near fine copy in blue cloth with gilt on spine, folding map at back. Small bit of wear to top, faint mark on bfep, else excellent. In an excellent jacket with no price clipping, nor any fading. NF/NF
