QR Code Link to This Post
For sale, my pristine copy of The Hobbit Deluxe Edition. I’ve had this for about 45 years. Never read; map never unfolded. Bought in the early 80’s new and it’s remained in its box ever since. The box shows some scuff marks from moving over the years, but still remains completely intact. $500
