I now have 810 Hobbits from 86 countries and/or in 86 languages. And, more Hobbits will follow.

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.

The past few weeks have been a good Hobbit time. As many as seven new Hobbits found their way into my collection.
As a result, the collection now consists of 804 Hobbits from 85 countries or in 85 languages.
Striking: five of the seven appeared this year, in 2022. The Hobbit, forever young.

Below are the seven new acquisitions.

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.

This new Hobbit from Ukrania was shipped to me only a few days before Russia invaded Ukrania.
I can only hope that this Ukranian Hobbit will not be the last Hobbit, printed in a free Ukrania.

Hardback with dust jacket, cover by Tolkien and illustrations in color and black and white also by Tolkien.

This Hobbit deserves a place of honor in my collection of 787 Hobbits in 84 languages / from 84 countries.
