Books is obviously THE main area of Tolkien collecting.
It is a very big area and I've split it into 2 sections a; this entry about books written by Tolkien, including those edited and published after his death, b; books published about Tolkien and his books.
I don't specifically collect the books but I do have a few.
Please see the Tolkien Guides for links to Tolkien book collecting resources.
These are the books in my collection.
