: It can't possibly be a first edition, not as in "when the LOTR first came out"; the three books were released seperately.There are three books. I think the description says two of the books are second impression and one is first impression. The scans/pics show two with dust jackets and one without. The dust jackets show are a pale color with a black circle with a red eye in the center. Surronding the circle are elvish runes. Above the circle is ring. Scans/pics of inside pages of two books show George Allen & Unwin Ltd., (hard to read)House Museum Street London and the dates 1953 and 1954. The bids on these are up to $1500+.
