I've been collecting books by and about Tolkien for donkey's years now; academic as well as fiction. I don't know how many copies of The Lord of the Rings, nor Hobbits, there are in the collection. Nor Silmarillions. Just lots and lots; mainly UK editions, with a fair smattering of US eds. and even one or two in foreign, which I can't read, but look nice.
It is something of an obsession, I suppose.
