Notes
1st Printing: September, 2003

At least three printings issued. Those seen are the 1st and 2nd Printings (with sheets from the 2002 Film Tie-In Edition) and the 6th Printing (with sheets from the 2001 Film Tie-In Edition).*

RRP: $12.00; Sold in a set with The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers.

*For this edition, the wrappers from the 2001 Film Tie-In Edition and 2002 Film Tie-In Edition were stripped and the sheets were trimmed and rebound with the newer 2003 wrappers (as shown here). Therefore the ISBN on the copyright page matches the 2001 Edition (0618129111) or 2002 Edition (0618260285) whereas the ISBN on the back cover (0618346279) is correct for this 2003 Edition.
