You may mention my name. Price of the book $ 15.00, shipping (within Europe $ 15.00, worldwide also $ 15.00??).

These new Hobbits are # 567, 568 and 569 in my Hobbit collection.

This Hobbit might look like two Hobbits that already are in my collection (Eng 12 and Eng 99), but no. There is a difference:
on the spine of the book there is that little Tolkien dragon. Eng 12: in yellow, Eng 99: in red and Eng 160 (this Hobbit): in orange.
And yes, this Hobbit has the HC logo in white and not in silver, just like on the front cover.

This Hobbit is # 656 in my Hobbit collection.

It is not my custom to buy special bindings from books. Yet I made an exception for The Hobbit in Latin, in leather bound by Handbuchbinderei Anna Kabs from Weidenthal – Germany.

The book is really beautifully bound with Bilbo by Dutch illustrator Cor Blok on the cover. The content of the book is equal to the first edition (2012) of The Hobbit in Latin.

This Hobbit is # 655 in my Hobbit collection. More infomation about this Hobbit? Click here.

This time an UNWIN Paperbacks Hobbit, printed and bound in Canada, arrived.
But in what year? Book says Third Edition 1966, ISBN says about 1975, but seen the price (Canadian $ 2,75) this book must have been for sale in 1980 or a little later.

Who knows the exact year?

This Hobbit is # 654 in my Hobbit collection.
