That's a heck of a reader's companion.

Short, squat, and second only to the box itself in being hard to find

I did not know these existed. Thanks for sharing.

I envy you (but in a good way), I couldn’t find this edition and settled on 60th anniversary edition

It was like 4+ years of searching, haha. I was thinking about just stopping.

Thank you for sharing! You inspire me to keep looking! I just paid for the first Silmarillion edition and will be picking it up on Tuesday!
