Tolkien (1977)\u003cbr\u003eFirst Edition, Early Impression – Printed by Billing \u0026amp; Sons Ltd.\u003cbr\u003eThis 1977 edition of The Silmarillion was published by George Allen \u0026amp; Unwin and printed by Billing \u0026amp; Sons Ltd. of Guildford and Worcester. It represents a notable transitional state for Tolkien collectors. This copy retains the famous uncorrected typo on page 190, where \"assembled\" is misspelled as \"asssembled\". However, the minor errors on pages 330 and 352 have been corrected, identifying this volume as an authentic early subsequent impression from the book's first year of release. \u003cbr\u003eThe book features the standard dark blue cloth boards with gilt spine lettering and includes the original fold-out red and black map of Beleriand attached to the rear endpaper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn good overall condition.
