This edition revisits Lee’s celebrated 1992 illustrations with new paintings and more than fifty additional drawings. Across the three volumes are sixty colour paintings and numerous chapter-opening illustrations. The text is printed in two colours, with the complete appendices and index. The quarter-bound volumes have blue leather spines, grey cloth boards, illustrated labels, sprayed edges and ribbon markers. The publisher also supplied three removable art cards and two folding maps drawn by Christopher Tolkien.

The grey cloth slipcase carries Alan Lee’s silver-foil designs. Its three matching blue spines are visible through the open side. The publisher’s printed rear panel describes the edition and bears its ISBN.
