I was given the Ballantine's paperback red box with the Hobbit and LotR (4-volumes) by the boyfriend who had introduced me to Tolkien many years ago by lending me his books. That was all I had for many years, until I started buying further books myself - biography, letters, Sil, UT, minor works, HomE, supplementary works, etc...
