About this Item

1st Edition, 2nd Impression ? The Two Towers by J.R.R. Tolkien (1955)

A scarce early printing of The Two Towers, the second volume in J.R.R. Tolkien?s epic The Lord of the Rings trilogy. This is a first edition, second impression, published in 1955 by George Allen & Unwin, just months after the true first.

The book remains in very good condition for its age, with clean, bright pages and the original hardcover showing only minor wear consistent with use and time. Please note: the fold-out map at the rear is missing from this copy.

Despite this, it is a highly collectible early impression of Tolkien?s masterpiece and an appealing opportunity for serious collectors or Tolkien enthusiasts to own an authentic piece of Middle-earth publishing history.
