Tolkien signed letters and books
Since over here at the Tolkien Library Store I mainly specialize in rare and antiquarian books, and am specialized in books signed by J.R.R. Tolkien, books from Tolkien's personal Library and cards and letters by J.R.R. Tolkien, it is always interesting to see what other shops have available! And I'm certain all Tolkien fans are always happy to see special items like these!
So let us have a look at the signed letters and books that are available from The Tolkien Shop. These are all original, fully 100% guaranteed letters written and signed by Tolkien, as well as books with Tolkien's signature.
| Handwritten letter by Tolkien, 1 Jan 1956 - € 2.500,00A very early letter by Tolkien (dated 1 January 1956), handwritten and signed by Tolkien on his Sandfield Road letter paper, writing with some humour to one of his very first fans, a Mr Polet, who so much enjoyed reading The Fellowship of the Ring. Tolkien hopes he will also enjoy reading volumes 2 and 3. 5x7"/13x17 cm. Folded once. Undamaged. |
| Postcard from Arthur Tolkien. 12 Feb 1891 - € 4.995,00
John Ronald Reuel (JRR) Tolkien, author of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, was born in Bloemfontein, Republic of the Orange Free State (OFS) on 3 January 1892. Little is known about his first three years in the OFS, except that his father was already the Manager of the Bank of Africa in Bloemfontein when his wife-to-be, Mabel Suffield, relocated from Birmingham (UK) to South Africa in 1891. Upon arrival in Cape Town, they married on 16 April 1891 in Cape Town Cathedral in British Colonial Cape of Good Hope. After marriage they settled in Bloemfontein, with AR Tolkien resuming his duties as Manager of the Bank of Africa. Even though Arthur Tolkien moved to South Africa around 1890, this item proves that he was already the Manager of the Bank of Africa in Bloemfontein as early as 12 February 1891. Arthur signed this post card as AR Tolkien, Manager. The post card is of the first type (HG1) of the Orange Free State and was sent by the Bank of Africa from the General Post Office shown in this item. Postmarked BLOEMFONTEIN, 12 FE 91: No. 22 of Putzel, but without time code. Arrival strike REDDERSBURG, FE ?, 1891 catalogued as Postmark No. 2 of Putzel & Visser (no time code). The postcard is 5x3"/12x7.5 cm and is in perfect condition. Arthur Tolkien addressed the card to Leo Meijer Esq, Reddersburg and wrote on the back that the matter has his attention and signed and dated the card. Autographs by Tolkien's father are extremely rare. I have been collecting since the 70-ties and this is the first one I have seen. |
