Well, this is not exactly a new Hobbit……
Paperback, 2020, 60th printing.
But, there already was a 60th printing (hardback with original Tolkien cover 1937).
Plus: Normally silver foil was used in this edition, but because of the limited edition, light gray printing ink was used instead.

It has been a bit quiet at hobbithunter.nl for a while. One of the reasons was the replacement of my laptop. After that, not everything went as planned.
Fortunately, the problems are now over and I can report five new Hobbits.
First of all, two Polish Hobbits (from 1988 and 1991), thanks to JOHAN VANHECKE. Then two brand new Danish editions, thanks to a Facebook message from SØREN VALDEMAR BYRIAL and last but not least a special Croatian edition of the comic Hobbit thanks to OLIVER BOZOVIC.
Thanks to all and if you come across a Hobbit that is missing from my collection, please contact me.
Thanks to these five new Hobbits, I now have 797 Hobbits in 85 languages / from 85 countries.
