THREE NEW HOBBITS HAVE ARRIVED …..

Thanks to Brasilian collector Thiago Damasceno no less than three new Brasilian Hobbits arrived. Plus a Brasilian edition of Bilbo’s Last Song and four double copies – I am sure that they will find a good home at other collectors). Once again: Thiago, thank you very much.

First of all: The Hobbit’s 75th birthday.
