The Folio Society has revealed its super limited deluxe set of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings book series. This set of hardback books are quarter bound in burgundy leather with silver page tops.
They are a beautiful-looking set, but the most important aspect of these books are the illustrations that were created by artist Alan Lee. He did conceptual design work on Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings films which perfectly brought Tolkien’s world to life. Lee even won an Oscar in 2004 for Best Art Direction for his work in The Return of the King.
Lee also contributed a preface to The Folio Society’s edition of these books and has hand-signed each book that is being sold. There are only 1,000 sets that were produced for this limited-edition run.
The Folio Society’s high-end books don’t come cheap, and this set would cost you $1,500.
