<B>J.R.R. Tolkien Letter Signed With a Lengthy Holograph Postscript</B></I> A printed form letter signed "<I>J.R.R. Tolkien</B></I>", 1 page, 5.25" x 7", Oct. 12, 1966, addressed to a fan thanking him for his letter. Tolkien adds a personalized three line postscript: "<I>If you use one of the modern steel bows, you should be developing a good torso!</B></I>" Readers of the <I>Lords of the Ring </B></I>trilogy will immediately note that "<I>steel bows</B></I>" were used by the Numenor race. In Tolkien's mythology, Numenor was a part of Middle Earth, and its inhabitants were legendary warriors and horsemen. Although this letter is a printed form used by the author, no doubt in response to the voluminous fan mail resulting from his success, the addition of a holograph referencing his great literary creation adds tremendously to the value of this letter. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. In fine condition.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
