Copies of the 40th Printing (1973 Ballantine Edition) have been seen bound with wrappers from this edition likely due to a surplus which Ballantine wanted to use up.
An SBN code (345015347) was added to the copyright page with the 34th Printing.
RRP: $0.95. Sold in a set with The Fellowship of the Ring and The Return of the King.
*With the 2nd Printing, the 1st Printing date was changed to October, 1965 which is thought to be correct.
**With the 36th Printing, the 32nd Printing date was changed to July, 1972.
