Super Deluxe COH announced
for those with fat wallets
http://www.tolkienlibrary.com/press/...per_Deluxe.php 300 british pounds is what --- 600 us dollars? Sounds pretty pricey. Very glad I got a signed one by Christopher from the New York debut months ago for far far less than that. |

According to the Harper Collins Tolkien site forum http://www.tolkien.co.uk/forum.aspx?g=posts&t=468 the edition will only be available for sale & delivery within the UK due to publishing rights issues - HC only have the UK publishing rights - though apparently there's nothing to stop foreign publishers (like Houghton Mifflin in the US) bringing out their own 'super deluxe' editions.
Nice investment though (or for selling via Ebay). I'm pretty sure you could get twice what you pay for it straight away of you decide to sell it on. Given what signed firsts of LotR go for its probably worth getting. |
