Mine isn’t first edition (I don’t think), but it was my mother’s from the late seventies.

The Giant Emu scene didn’t test as well with audiences.

My parents have got a hardcover version. I think it’s first edition.

Actually, I think their LoTR is too - the three volume version, with the nice fold out maps. I don’t know that it’s first impression though. Maybe I should get them to check and make sure it’s looked after :wink:

And maybe The Hobbit, too, but it definitely doesn’t have its jacket.

Awesome!

It’s not a big deal - people have different opinions about such things.
