Allen and Unwin. 1962, 1963, 1963 Impressions 12, 10,10 This set is in much better condition overall, jacket colour is uniform. FotR jacket has a little more tattering to spine ends. Of 1st edition sets you are more or less buying jacket as far as the value, thus this set is priced higher. The photos provide the detail. Books are truly read once condition, all have the Foyles sticker, along with the uniform wear, indicating they were purchased together. Please note, it does not come with a slipcase. Condition, Condition, Condition! As Tolkien book collecting grows in popularity, the availability of collectible/investment original condition books and jackets disappears. It is not just the printing/edition that matters to the value, but that serious collectors want only the best condition. Books with damaged jackets or even no jackets at all, are now increasing in price, driving up the price of complete and better condition copies. You could have a poor copy worth only £200 or a fine copy worth £5,000. That's how important condition is to value. You should always buy the best you can afford original jackets, early printing and very good or better. Unlike other genre’s, the market for Tolkien early editions is quite mature and well established. It is not a matter of waiting for a better copy to come along. There aren’t going to be any! There are no more hiding in the attic or charity shops. People sell off their more worn copies when they upgrade and now leave their collections to their children. We’ve been a specialist dealer for 20 years. Some examples that were plentiful just two years ago are now completely gone or only the dregs appear. As time goes on, you’ll pay more money, for less condition. First editions The Lord of the Rings and Hobbits remain the most in demand. If you like it, can afford it, then buy it while its available.…

Appraisals
We can provide valuations on books and art within our particular genre. We have some 20 years collecting experience and 14 years as a professional book and art dealer. We have an excellent publically recognized reputation. It is very important to have a formal valuation on record before an actual loss as it will aid in achieving maximum replacement value from the loss adjustor. General dealers and auction houses are not necessarily expert in specific authors and art genres. It is important to understand you are insuring or claiming for the replacement value, not simply the value at the time of loss. Some items are truly one of a kind and not easily replaceable.
Appraisal Fees are 5% of the valuation amount for items up to £15,000 in value, dropping to 3% over this. Minimum charge is £100. We will provide a certificate of current value which includes authentication of the item. Contact MarkFaith@FestivalArtandBooks.com for more information on appraisals.
