All three books have been recently rebound in full black leather. The binding is distinguished by five raised bands, gilts rules, the Title in gilt on red leather insert, with the Author gilt stamped in one of the compartments. All edges of the text block have been trimmed and gilded. The boards also have single gilt rule to the edges. All original maps are present and in fine condition.

A handsome early set of the famous trilogy. A nice item for the Tolkien collector. All are very clean and bright, with no foxing, and with no writing or signatures. Beautiful looking set, with a classic design.
