Someone had a signed first edition of The Hobbit on "Antiques Roadshow"!

How cool! I'd love to find one of those in my attic.

I have a (hush) signed first edition of the Silm. found, in my grandparent's attic several years ago. They claim to have no idea where it came from...

Thank you so much for sharing that. I was thrilled to hear him say "a book of this magnitude". *beams* And wow, what a value!

Oh wow, that is awesome! He was pretty calm when he got the appraisal. I'd have fainted, lol!!
