I can't speak for Scull and Hammond, but I imagine that if you sent it to them with return postage, they would be more than willing to sign it.


I'll let them confirm that, though, as they frequent this forum quite often. :)

Oops - I was wrong about the price of one of my items; just looked at my Baynes set and I see it's marked £150. Still, not bad, eh!

A Hobbit paperback on eBay claiming to be signed by "The Professor", which they are, as is every copy produced because they all included a printed copy of his signature

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dl ... &ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT


Sent notes to the seller, but will also inform any buyer after feedback is left and I can see who they are.

eBay need to fix the fact that you cannot inform buyers about problems before the auction ends.


It sold for £40, a lot of money for this paperback.

Here's a Hobbit -

http://cgi.ebay.com/TOLKIEN-HOBBIT-19 ... oks_2&hash=item4cf87b7a63

You are bidding on an Ultra Scarce Hardcover edition of Tolkiens Masterpiece the Hobbit. Printed in 1954 before his popularity really began to soar these early volumes were as a result printed in scarce numbers.... These early editions are guaranteed to continue to increase in value over the coming years, particularly with the impending release of THE HOBBIT movies in the years to come... Needless to say quality hardbacks like this are near impossible to find. Will make a prized addition to any collection or an amazing start to one. This book is an investment and once bought tend not to be sold so can be a one off opportunity."

...

It's not even in that good a condition..
