Lot 512

Tolkien (J.R.R.). The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, 1954; The Two Towers, 1954; The Return of the King, 1955, 1st eds., 1st impressions, folding map at end of each, top edges stained red, original red cloth (one or two light stains), d.j.s, Fellowship spine toned, slipcase, 8vo. Each volume signed by the author to front endpaper. Hammond A5. Wayne Hammond’s Tolkien bibliography initially stated that the first state of Return of the King had signature ‘4’ and all line of type ‘sag’ in the middle on page 49. He now agrees that the first state contains no signature and straight lines of text, as per the present copy. A copy of the eight-page pamphlet ‘The Making of The Lord of the Rings’ by Rayner Unwin (Oxford: William A. Meeuws), 1992 (Copy B) is presented with this lot. This personal account of the agonies for author and publisher in bringing Tolkien’s revered masterpiece into print is an astonishing story of an author-publisher relationship in the traditional sense. So easily the book may never have been published were it not for Rayner’s belief in Tolkien’s self-confessed ‘monster’. When the project eventually moved forward into costings Rayner wrote to his father, then travelling on business in Japan, that based on dividing the book into three it would still lose money. ‘His reply was a model of what is now called hands-off management. If, he wrote, you beleive it is a work of genius, then you may lose a thousand pounds.’ Even then it was nearly two years of headaches before the first volume ran off the press. Tolkien was uncomfortable with the ambiguities of The Two Towers as a title to the second part and it was Rayner who chose the title of the third and final part, winning over Tolkien who preferred The War of the Ring, so as not give away so much of the plot! Then there was the difficulty of the maps, the printers and their proof-reading corrections for Tolkien’s deliberate quirky spelling, plus the appendices, the dust jacket designs and so forth. ‘And so the tortuous saga drew to a close. A last six-page letter of minute queries in the final proofs, a response with additional queries from the printer which reached Tolkien in Assisi (a rapid excursion from Gondor as he called it), and then silence while the book was being printed. Publication was fixed for 20th October 1955 and with it The Lord of the Rings was completed. It seemd an awful anti-climax. I had gone abroad, so Tolkien wrote to my cousin Philip and said Hurray. The rest is history.’ (3)
