Tolkien (RARE Export Copy) - The Silmarillion - 1977

这是一本极其罕见的 1st Edition 版本，来自 J.R.R. Tolkien 的《The Silmarillion》。这是真正的第一版（常被称为 Export Edition），在面向英国发行的版本之前印制。所谓“Export Edition”由若干特征标注，包括未标价的书套和印刷厂为 William Clowes。本书此册被视为第二状态（2nd State），属于极其罕见的变体，修正自第一状态的一些（但非全部）错误。The Silmarillion 的故事与 Tolkien 最著名的作品《The Lord Of The Rings》和《The Hobbit》交织在一起，这一卷也已成为他最受喜爱、最具收藏价值的作品之一。此册有可能未阅，状态极好（Fine），背后附有折叠地图以及原厂书衣。放在书架上十分美观，极适合增添任何装饰性的图书馆或私人收藏。
