RRP: $4.95. Sold in a set with The Hobbit, The Fellowship of the Ring and The Return of the King.

*The 83rd Printing misidentifies the cover art and credits J.R.R. Tolkien as the artist (it is possible that the sheets used for this printing were left over from the previous 83rd Printing which did have Tolkien’s art on the cover). This was corrected by the 5th Printing.
