The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien by H. Carpenter ( H. M. Co. | 2nd. Print | 1981 )

Overall condition is acceptable. The dust jacket is wrapped in a Gaylord archival quality cover, as usually used by libraries. The book has no signs of having been a library book, mind you. Because the dust jacket is within the cover and I'd have to destroy the cover, I do not know what the inside of the dust jacket's condition is. The front looks to have the remains of a sticker and two small white spots plus tiny tears at the corners and a tiny tear on the upper edge.  The book itself is in good shape with very little corner rounding though the spine ends are a bit more worn. The pages have some discoloration with age but not too much due to good paper quality.
