Description:
This sumptuous gift set includes a replica of the very rare first edition of The Hobbit, the only edition where one can now read the original version of the story before Tolkien re-edited it to become the one enjoyed by readers since 1951.
The Hobbit was published on 21 September 1937, with a print run of 1,500 copies. With a beautiful cover design, nearly a dozen black & white illustrations and two black & red maps by the author himself, the book proved to be popular and was reprinted shortly afterwards. History was already being made.

The scarcity of the first edition has resulted in copies commanding huge prices, way beyond the reach of most Tolkien fans. In addition, subsequent changes to the text – particularly those to chapter 5, when Tolkien decided in 1947 to revise the text to bring it better into accord with events as they were developing in its ‘sequel’, The Lord of the Rings – mean that the opportunity to read the book in its original form and format has become quite difficult.

This special commemorative gift set includes the first edition, so that readers of all ages – not just ‘children between the ages of 5 and 9’, as Rayner Unwin famously declared in his report on the original submission – can finally enjoy Tolkien’s story as it originally appeared. It also includes an exclusive CD of archive recordings that capture Tolkien reading from The Hobbit, a special copy of Thror’s map which reveals the secret moon-runes when held to the light, and an accompanying booklet that relates the history of The Hobbit, and includes connected writings by JRR Tolkien.

Really supportive, comfortable pillows, great value.
Size: Queen Size(2 Pack)
When I received these pillows, I followed the directions to fluff them. They were delivered vacuum packed. The first night I slept on them, I didn’t remove any of the filling. That was a problem because the pillows are so over stuffed that it was difficult to sleep on them. I was disappointed until I removed about 1/3 of the filling. Doing so made all of the difference. These pillows are very nice. They keep their shape during the night and provide excellent support for my neck and head. They don’t flatten out or separate like regular shredded foam pillows. They are well made with an outer cooling cover as well as a inner zippered cover for the foam. I love the fact that these pillows are adjustable. I saved the foam I removed in the zippered bag the pillows arrived in, in case I needed to restore the foam in the future. They are a very good value for the money.

Not cooling throughout the night
Size: Standard Size(1 Pack)
The quality of the pillow was great the stitching as well. The one side did feel cool, but it did not last throughout the evening. Also, it was too thick for my neck and caused me headaches. The phone pieces that are inside made me concerned that after time they would flatten and the pillow would get firm. I am a hot sleeper and I expected it to stay cool longer than two hours. Because of that I returned it, but if you like thick pillows, and you’re not a hot sleeper, it may work for you.

Decent pillow
Size: Standard Size(1 Pack)
Nice pillow. When first opening it you fluff it and put it in the dryer for about 10 minutes, comes out exactly how I like my pillows, firm but has a little bit of softness. Used this pillow for several nights now. Holds it's shape at the start of the night, but when I wake up its sorta flat and had a smashed feel to it. Fluffs back to it's original size and shape. Just wish it was more dense with about 1/4 to 1/2 more foam inside. Would probably help firm it up and hold it's shape better.

Firm and dense to the Extreme!!
Size: Queen Size(2 Pack)
I love my pillows, extremely firm and also extremely dense. I hate when a pillow gets worn down in the middle after like a few weeks or a month and then you’re struggling to get it full again. It’s absolutely impossible. When I got these pillows, it said that it might take 24 hours for them to fully enlarge. I enrolled them and took a look at this flat thin thing and I thought, oh my God, I made a huge mistake in ordering these. Went into the kitchen, made some dinner after dinner went into my bedroom and holy moly, these pillows were massive. I was so excited and I couldn’t wait to sleep on them. Now mind you, I am a side sleeper, so that’s why I like a very full and firm pillow. I do love how full they are, however, it was a little much. Luckily, you can unzip them and take some of the filling out. A little tip is to keep the little zipped bag they give you and you can put some extra filling in there and zip it and if you ever want to fill it back up, it’s easy. I took about 15% of the filling out of each pillow which to me was perfect, but I could see people wanting to take much more out. I love that you have the option of taking it out and putting it back in if you ever need to, but I don’t think you’ll need to because these pillows will never get squishy or flat. I love these pillows so much that I don’t know if I could ever exist without them. Please never discontinue these because if I ever need to get another set, I want them available. Best pillows I’ve ever had in my entire life. Period!
