The Hobbit, or There and Back Again, Ballantine Books, USA, 1965
The Hobbit (English [H] C), purchased in 2026, from lengen71 on ebay (paperback)
Tolkien, J. R. R., The Hobbit, or There and Back Again (Ballantine Books, 1965). First printing
This volume replicates my first Hobbit from the late 1960s that died a natural death in the early 1990s. It was the first of Tolkien's works that I ever bought. I replaced it with English [H] A (below). I purchased this Hobbit in 2026 off ebay. My original copy was purchased before 1970, in 1967 or 1968, but this particular copy is a first printing from 1965 (with the famous lion on the cover that was removed in later printings). It is close to being the same age as my late first copy, but I don't remember whether mine had the lion or not.
The Lord of the Rings boxed set, Ballantine Books, USA, 1965
The Lord of the Rings (English B), purchased on-line from Golden Treasures on ebay in 2023 (paperback)
Tolkien, J.R.R., The Lord of the Rings (Ballantine Books, 1965), 1, The Fellowship of the Ring. Third printing
——, The Lord of the Rings (Ballantine Books, 1965), 2, The Two Towers. Fourth printing
——, The Lord of the Rings (Ballantine Books, 1965), 3, The Return of the King. Second printing
This set replicates my first LOTR set from the late 1960s that, like the Hobbit above, died a natural death in the early 1990s. I replaced it with English A (below). I purchased a good set of Ballantines in 2023 off ebay. This set had printing dates in the '70s and a box (which my original set did not have). My original set was purchased before 1970, in 1967 or 1968. So the replacement set was younger. In 2026, I had the opportunity to purchase a set with very early printing dates from 1965 and 1966, so, like English [H] C (above), this set predates my first purchase, but is within just one or two years.
The painting on the box and covers is by Barbara Remington, who had not read the books when she painted it.
The Silmarillion, Houghton Mifflin Company, USA, 1977
First American Edition
The Silmarillion (English [S] A), purchased in a Waldenbooks in Salt Lake City in 1977 (hardback)
Tolkien, J.R.R., The Silmarillion, ed. by Christopher Tolkien (Houghton Mifflin Company, 1977). ISBN: 0-395-25730-1. First printing, Second state
I bought this when it first came out back in 1977 and it happens to be a first printing of the first American edition. It's easy to identify the first printing because on the list of Tolkien's writings is "Father Giles of Ham" (rather than "Farmer Giles of Ham).
During the print run for this edition the right edge of one printing plate broke so that on page 229 the right edge of lines 29-32 (the large paragraph on the lower half of the page) lost all or part of the final letters of several words, making them look cut off. Thus the first American printing is divided into two states, the First State and the Second State. My copy is part of the Second State.

Tolkien, J.R.R., The Lord of the Rings, Centenary edition (Houghton Mifflin Company, 1991). ISBN: 0-395-59511-8
This edition is the anniversary edition of the centenary of Tolkien's birth. I bought it to replace my Ballantine set of paperbacks from the early 1970s that had literally fallen apart after several readings over two decades. I remember that I bought it on a clearance book table at a Sears in a Canoga Park mall. Sears didn't normally sell books, but it was shortly after Christmas when department stores stock all kinds of things that they don't normally sell.

A hardback version of this Hobbit was originally published along with English E, but it is very rare. I normally wouldn't have purchased a paperback edition, but the cover art for all four volumes (H+LOTR) is a single Alan Lee painting, "Nazgûl over Minas Morgul", 3/4 of which can be seen above on the box for the LOTR set. The painting on the cover of the Hobbit fits on the left side of the 3/4 of the painting on the box and LOTR covers as shown below.
The Lord of the Rings (English F) and The Hobbit (English [H] E) are second copies of English E (above) and English [H] D (below) with custom dust jackets featuring the art of Elle for O3 Books.

The four custom-made dust jackets of English [H] E and English F have the four lines of the second half of "The Riddle of Strider" lined up on the back covers:
Hobbit: "From the ashes a fire shall be woken..."

I don't really collect English LOTR, but after adding to the English section of my shelves the full range of William Morrow boxed sets below, there was an unsightly gap at the end of the first shelf. (I'm very compulsive about keeping the books in a specific order [see the shelf order page], so just rearranging the books is not an option.) I actually wrote to a couple of ebay sellers who had a one-volume LOTR in English and had them measure the width of their offering. This one fit.
